I hate to tell you but very, very few games have any performance increase with SLI. I used SLI about a year ago and found that it ran better with the 2nd card disabled. I was running 2x 256mb cards so I sold them and bought a 512mb card and I saw a huge performance increase.
This is exactly the reason why I nearly always recommend someone go with the best single card for the money, even if they have to spend a little more, than two cards for around the same price. There are just too many variables with SLI/Crossfire with regards to how much they help/hurt performance. A faster single card will always be faster in games than a slower single card used in a comparable SLI config.
