8800 GTS SLI

So I have an evga 8800 GTS 320mb card. I want to upgrade by I am considering getting another one as they are pretty cheap now and SLI them. The only thing is my current card is the SSC version which is basically an overclocked card. I cant find any place to buy another SSC card of this same model. Would it be ok to get another card but not the SSC version? Or will I run into problems when I try to SLI them? I will be running on a 680i board. Thanks.
 
I ran mismatching 8800 GTS 320MB cards in SLI last Summer. One was an XFX that was overclocked, don't remember what the other one was but it was stock speed. Seemed to work fine (except for being equaled by a single 8800 GTS 512MB G92).
 
Not to mention that the power consumption of a single 512 GTS is lower than that of 2x320 GTS cards. Same goes for heat and of course you save space in your case and as happy medium mentioned you can always add a 2nd one down the road.
