No, you can only run two, three, or four cards of the same model. Even a 660 and a 660ti won't work together. You can SLI two different manuafacturer's cards - i.e.: an Asus 770 and a MSI 770 can be SLI'ed. 

 

TL;DR You're correct and your friend is wrong. You can only SLI cards of the same model.

that would be if it worked correctly. most of the time it brings the more powerful card down.
