I bought a EVGA GTX 680 4GB FTW from newegg maybe around 6 months ago and I want to buy another one for SLI but I can't seem to find it any where... I searched on NewEgg and it's discontinued. Amazon is all used/really expensive ($3,000). I also checked pricewatch.com and they do not hold it and neither does tigerdirect.com... EVGA.com only holds the 2GB version of the FTW. Would I be able to use SLI with a 2GB and a 4GB version or does anyone know where to buy a 4GB version?

You would need to get a 4gb model. Nvidia recommends against using cards with different vram; it would need to be adjusted using a third party program in order to work properly.

also, I woudnt pay more then $400 for a 680. try finding a used one.

No instead of paying $500-600 for another 680 I suggested $650 for a GTX780 in my first post. He might even come out ahead selling his GTX680 and replacing with two GTX770 looking at these ridiculous prices.
By the way the 770 is a re-branded 680 more efficient and higher std clocks.

I feel as if just buying another 680 for a used one for $490 would be easier then going through all the trouble of trying to sell my 680 and all that... One last thing before I make a final decision just to make sure (even though I think it'll work) SLI is compatible with an i7 3770k CPU and P8Z77-M pro motherboard correct?
