Are there any advantage to having 2 video cards?

I am currently building a new pc. I already have the GTX 460. Would there be any advantage adding a 2nd one to my pc? I'm running CS5.

Thanks
 
Dunno if the MPE can take advantage of SLi technology or not. If not, not really, other than being able to use more than two monitors.
 
you can use two monitors on one video card already, and no CS5 does not take advantage of SLi technology; that will probably be a feature of CS6.

David said "More than 2 monitors". I'm in the same boat, I have a dual monitor setup and also my Sony 55" TV, So I will be getting another card very soon.
 
Thanks everyone. I realized that I needed a GTX470 not the 460. Fortunately, I was able to exchange my card plus another $100. That sucked.
 
Nvidia video quality sucks when compared to Matrox cards. I'd rather forfeit CUDA and get a clean image than get a CUDA engine with a muddy image.
