1080 ti sli with Titan X

I have a 2016 Titan X and I was wondering that since the GTX 1080 ti seems to be almost the same, just with faster ram, could they be SLI'd together?  I've been trying to find a used Titan X but everyone still wants way to much for one and it would be more cost effective to just get a 1080 ti. Let me know what you guys think and thank you in advance for your advice

Edit: Just did some research on this:

 

- All GPUs must have the same amount of VRAM and an identical Bus Width
-- You cannot use a "2GB" version with a "4GB" version or "3GB" version with a "6GB" version in SLI or a 1GB 192 bit bus with a 1GB 256 bit bus Etc.

It won't work. It needs to be the exact same card... with the exact same amount of cores and VRAM.

Alternatively you can just keep it as it is, wait until 2017 and sell it to buy the brand new Titan X Volta, it is what I'll do though I'm still rocking the Maxwell one.

The specifications have to be exactly the same in order for SLI to work, same card, same vram, etc.

I'll probably buy the new one, but I might wait 6 months to make sure that they don't come out with a Titan Xv after the Titan XV.  I'd keep my Titan XP tho.  I have a hard time selling old electronics.  Partially cuz I like to make sure I have a backup and largely cuz I'm addicted to them, lol.

Just sell the Titan X and get another 1080 Ti....(If you specially focus at gaming)

I don't already have a 1080ti, just the XP.  I was just seeing if it was a viable option because people are trying to sell their used XP's for more than the price of the new 1080ti. I'd like to get a little extra power because I like having everything maxed at 4k, except for a.a., I don't bother with that.

Owh...you have two options:

1.buy another Titan XP

or,

2.Sell your Titan XP and get two 1080TIs

Heck, would a new Xp even connect with the XP with the changes they made?  Most of the used ones I find people want near  $1000 for them, that's just ridiculous.
