The newest games are just now beginning to take advantage of this type of setup. It's mostly for serious hardcore gamers. Not sure about SH4, I'd do a search in these forums to find your answer.

Yes, that is the SLI I was referring too.
In many of the newer games, there can be quite an increase in performance. Fallout 3, Far Cry 2, Crysis, STALKER CS, COD, etc.. etc.. to name a few. SLI has been advantageous in some games for a while now (hence the reason some people were/are running SLI setups with 6600GTs, 8800TXs, etc..).
I believe I already did a search here, but I will run one again with a few different headings to see what I can find.
Thanks!
