Not very effective and that is, why sli isn't providing a way better performance on smaller sli rigs as desired.
And this is VERY often the case in games, that it do not take advantage of the vram. Normally the guys do not see it, as current games are not using a lot mor than 1 GB vram. But this is waste ...

I try not too risk a disagreement on the 1c forums but; The memory is not wasted if both GPUs are using it. Half of it would be wasted if you are not using SLI (and have two GPUs) as each GPU only accesses its own Vram.
I do of course know this to be true because I read it on the internet
