It wont really help.
The principle is that your taking up as much possible bandwidth from your gateway as possible. In simple home network configurations, this means that no matter how many interfaces you have pulling data, the aggregate bandwidth will still remain the same.
The bottleneck lies at the gateway, not at the client.
In some certain cases, using multiple nic's would be benefficial, however. For instance, if you're supplied an on campus connection at a local university, which may enforce some packet shaper or rate limiting policies, then bridging two limited network connections together would increase the total bandwidth available.
When I say "bridging" I dont mean bridging in the traditional sense, but rather the "winXP" sense (shutter).
