New card compatible with my current mobo?

I was thinking of upgrading my card to an X1950 XTX

The problem is that I have a nvidia sli motherboard. I was wondering if it was possible to have a crossfire card setup with a SLI mobo. I remember that you could have an ATI card in a nvidia based mobo; however, Im unsure as to whether or not crossfire/sli creates a problem.

any help?
 
You cant do it 'officially' but i read "stories" of it being possible. Don't have any resources for you though.

I'm not reading your query the same way that DK did. If you just use a single video card, it makes no difference whether it has Crossfire capability. nVidia's chipset isn't going to be a problem for one X1950 card (note that neither Crossfire nor SLI works with non-matching cards, and you didn't use the plural when writing of the proposed purchase).
