    I just bought a GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 770 GV-N770OC 4Gb card to upgrade from a old GTX 470. I found a deal and it cost the same as a decent 2Gb version.

    My question is; if I want to SLI this card in the future would I:

    A: Need another 4Gb card
    2. When I go to SLI in the near future do I need the same card, a.k.a the same design? :p

    The reason I ask is I remember years ago I could have swore that SLI needed the reference design or the same card if not ref, correct?

    It is recommended to have a 4gb version of the 770. As long as you use a 770 any brand name is fine and the Gigabyte card would down clock to the speeds of the 2nd card if its slower than it.
