Can I run 2 12 meg voodoo 2's from different manufacturers in SLI?

I ask because I've got a Diamond Monster 3D II and haven't been able to find another one, but I have found several from different companies.

I was googling it earlier and that's the same stuff I got Gator.

It's too bad there's no 2k driver for using different boards. Ah well I guess I'll just have to look some more for another Monster 3d II.

If memory serves Me,
You'll need two cards with the same amount of memory.
You can also use any pci slots, because they require no IRQ.

I had the creative 8MB, but never found another (for a decent price).

The only game I had that required it was Independence War.
No loss.
