According to my netlimiter, the bf2.exe has used 8,12GiB down and 1,47GiB up in the year 2008 so I think you dont need to worry

40Gb is still a stack of download limit. That figure isn't strictly speaking your Bandwidth, it's a limit for volume. Compared to downloads gaming is next to nothing. Bandwidth is about throughput not volume.
If you want to test bandwidth - try here Open Directory - Computers: Data Communications: Testing and Tools: Bandwidth Tests

Otherwise, if you have a decent router, you shouldn' notice any slowdown if your sister doesn't end up streaming 3 videos and upload/download constantly - with you doing the same.

go with the 8mb unless downloading is 24/7 for you.
