    Sell and wait for the 6990/590, or sell and get 2x 6950/70's, as a 580 would be a downgrade. :)

    I'd sell it and see how the 6990 and 590 cards look.

    That 4870 should handle BC2 just fine until you get a replacement.

    4870 will play BC2 maxed if you forget about AA without any problems.

    Maybe he lives in a country with high electronic imports taxes. Here a 580GTX costs around 800 usd for example.

    4870's are good cards, they may run a little hot but still can handle all new games.
