First, welcome to the list! There are definitely many of us that would
be interested in helping out on something like this pro bono.
A couple of questions,
* what sort of time frame are you looking at for getting the project
done?
* Are you sure the PCs have enough juice for 2 cards? Typically memory
is your bottleneck in such a situation.
Looking forward to working with you,
