sli and displayport

[elitose]

Im curretly running two monitors that have an option for display-port. My gtx-780 has only one display port input. If I were to buy another 780 and run them in sli could I use the display port input in the additional 780 for the other monitor?

For Nvidia SLI, all monitors must be plugged into the same graphics card.
You monitor should also have a DVI input. There is nothing wrong with using this.
You can run both monitors on the existing card.

I am currently running them this way. I just want to plug them both using display port.

Displayport is just another connection standard.
Up to 2560x1600 resolution, the only advantage Displayport has over dual-link DVI is that it supports audio.
There is no reason to want to use Displayport for your second monitor.
