Crysis doesn't scale past 2 gpu's the last I knew, an extremely poorly coded game and since EA was the vendor I never considered buying it.

Kal-EL is right on CrossfireX scaling well to 4 gpu's though, in games that are multi-threaded such as the COD series they scale very well with no latency hit as far as I can tell.

Well I only have 2 gpus, but I am amazed by the scaling I have seen in COD WaW. I haven't tried in XP to do a real comparision, but the framerates go far beyond my expectations in vista.

If you are speaking of Crysis that sounds about normal but if you are talking about COD 4-5 then something is either screwed up or SLi is just bad in general and not just limited to dual card SLi. I play at max settings with driver settings at max quality using 1920x1200 res, I limited my fps to 125 but was previously hitting the limit I had set at 250 and averaging around 200 fps.

Crysis was a good game, it was AWFULLY coded though. Otherwise that game made me cream my pants when i first played the beta and it raped my entire computer.
