u can see some of my films from this link http://www.digitalfighters.co.uk/movies.htm
if i could get some files trust me i`ll do my best work yet with this mod.
I will say they are utube and well we all know it trashes the quality of the film but u`ll still see they are better than most utube pixel  rubbish.

Two cheap Cards in SLI don't have more Power than a good medium Class Card while even two SLI HighEnd Cards have a hard work to show an actual game like Crysis or CoD4 at the native resolution of a 32" TFT with all eye candy.

BF2 and BF 2142 gains a lot of additional Power if you upgrade to 2 GIG, mostly in the loading time of the maps and client verification.
The exact ammount of RAM needed ist also a question of graphic settings an GraphicCard Memory. HighGraphic Settings an low RAM isn't good.

For Fraps:
Using a second HardDrive to record the Movie should gain performance.
Limiting the maximum FpS of BF 2142 by using game.lockFps 30 in the konsole makes the record smoother.

Also think about the final video.
In most cases it's in 640 x 480 Pixels because the limitations of YouTube. Even if you plan to show the vid on a beamer higher res aren't needed.
So its stupid to record the game in highres an resize later.

Speaking about youtube:
Stage6 from DviX allows better res an to download the vid, there is also less competition. Currently there are only 3 FirstStrike Vids on Stage6, one of them very professional.

It's a semi-decent rig that I have been meaning to upgrade for a while now, but just don't have the time, finances, or motivation to do so except in small increments. Btw... how much of a difference would you say that SLI setup makes over a single card?

But not now. When I have time.
