"Joining" the second card (via SLI) will give you the boost of 10% to
50% in productivity. If you use the single card with the 512 MB
memory, the speed (=productivity) will stay the same as for a single
card. However, if the game requires lots of wallpaper patterns, then
256 MB memory might not be enough, and this is where the 512 MB card
will shine. This translates in several percent (or several tens of
percent ?) boost in performance. Only now the games started to appear
which can make the use of a large (512 MB) videocard memory, such as
Bioshock.
