Maya only uses your graphics card for the viewport, so you don't need a beast. However, check the qualification charts before you buy. (https://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet...12&id=18844534) Multiple video cards would have no effect. RAM and CPU will make the biggest difference when working. ATI/Nvidia is a matter of preference. I've never had any luck with Nvidia cards, but their Quadros are used more than ATI's workstation cards. (I would HIGHLY recommend you get a workstation card; not a Radeon or a Geforce, as they are notorious for display problems in Maya) The least expensive, certified Quadro card (the Quadro 400) is only $99.
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
