[quote="Chuckshissle"]Im afraid not my friend. You can however SLI different brand/manufacturer using the 81.98 driver, but you as far as I know you cannot SLI card with different models/gen.
Ex: BFG 7800 GT compatible with Evga 7800 GT
note: the same gen/model 7800 GT

sorry this was on another post so there is your anwser.

YES YOU CAN! With the latest driver revision you can mix and max manufacturers as long as you have the same core, i.e., 6800 Ultra and 6800 Ulta, 6800 GT with 6800 GT.
