PC noob question

[princedylan101]

So my friend asks, "There wouldn't be any compatibility issues if I put a 780 in my PC in addition to my 970, would there?" 

This friend claims that he knows just as much as I do about building computers, so I want you guys to tell me. Should I let him do it? I'm 50/50 on the idea, and personally feel like he could use the experience from the mistake. 


**UPDATE** If he goes through with it he will dump $130 on it.

You can't SLI cards with different GPUs, different models are fine (ex: ASUS 780 and EVGA 780), different VRAM is fine too I think (although I think it will "run" at the lowest VRAM of the two)
