Could always just OC it & get a new gpu. Should be fine for almost everything.

you can only sli a card with the exact same card i believe, there may be a few exceptions but the speed will be limited by the lower frequency anyways


Dual gpu cards can be paired with single gpu cards as long as it is the same architecture.

Any 970 will work. It will just lower the clocks to the slowest of the two.

Actually there are a few models that will not work with anything else
