Reactor Worker, don't get the HD5830. It often performs 40% worst than the nVidia GTX 460. Plus, the GTX 460 is cheaper.

He has already ordered the components. In any case, we weren't interested in Nvidia cards this time around due to the aforementioned desire to later use Crossfire.
A quick glance at the site below confirms that at worse he is only looking at a marginal performance loss (~10%) in most games, and the 5830 outperforms the 460 in a few cases. It remains a powerful card and he has nothing to regret in purchasing it.
