Important question about SLI

[Tapion817]

Good afternoon. So I have a PNY VCGGTX550TXPB GTX 550 Ti graphics card and I want to SLI it with another one. Now the problem is that its been discontinued and the current one is the PNY VCGGTX550TVXPB GeForce GTX 550 Ti graphics card. I'm wondering if I can SLI one of each or do I need to get hunt down and order a second identical card as the one I have? Thank you for your time.

As long as they're the same cards it's fine. However it will probably turn down some clock speeds so you can adjust that afterwards

They are essentially the same card, but they look different and have different model numbers. That doesn't matter?

No. By card I meant GPU so sorry about that. They are essentially the same which means you can sli them together, they just have different coolers on thats all. If you want, you can pretty much sli one with another one that is a different manufacturer.
