would it hurt performance if I sli a evga 7800gt co se with a 7800 gt co, I wasn't sure if it will hurt anything to use 2 different cards or if I should get a second co se as thats what I already bought. I have someone that wants to trade me a 7800gt co for my opty 165, if you guys think it won't make a difference then thats that.
 
like he said, yes, the latest drivers allow different cards of the same type, aka;

7800GT CO SE + 7800GT CO, or BFG 7800GT OC + eVga 7800GT CO SE.

I'm not sure the difference between the co and co se? faster clocks? anyways, if Card A can't run at Card B's speeds, put Card A in the top pci-e slot so that Card B will run at Card A's speeds, but if Card A can run at Card B's speeds, then put Card B in the first pci-e slot.
