I have:

ASUS ENGTX560 TI DCII TOP/2DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

I finally have enough money to get a second card and actually use my MoBo for SLI. Epic win! However this card is discontinued. Sad pandas.

I found this one:

ASUS ENGTX560 TI DCII/2DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

I know there is a difference in clock speeds. But this is as close as I could find (apples to apples). Will these two work together okay? Any thoughts or recommendations are appreciated before i sink in my little bits of money. Thank you for your consideration in advance.

Solution
no you cannot add an ATI card with your existing Nvidia,

but you can choose ANY branded Nvidia GTX560 TI DCII (Asus, XFX, Gigabyte, ETC)

just choose one with the closest clock speeds to yours

Does anyone know of any card still out there that would match it? Can I cross brands? Still close is better than nothing! Thanks for your fast response!
