Maybe you could try not being a miser, and grab proper cards instead of something that barely makes out. nVidia's current chips already use a lot of video RAM, 512MB SLi + high res might look good in FRAPS but not be smooth.

3870 on the other hand has terrible fillrate and texture power that X2ing it is equally dumb as the minimum frame will be bad. At least it uses video RAM effectively.

And FYI, you think people like [H] really play the game for smoothness? They just run through a same scene using FRAPs, and see if the framerate dips below 30fps. The 3870X2 did that, the 8800GT SLI combo won't, but frame swapping at 1920*1200 will definitely happen either way.
