SLI-ing a 6300GS and a 7600GT

Hello, i've just been reading around a bit and can see some pretty good results from joining two cards together on a SLI motherboard.

However all the benchmark test have been of the same make and model card

My question is:

If i connected my old 6300GS and my new 7600GT using SLI am i likely to get FPS advantages, or will the 6300 just slow the 7600 down? Any FPS to be gained? (on account of the extra 256mb or fast ram and the added help from the 2nd GPU)

cheers guys
 
Whoops dunno how i missed that topic just down there lol, but i spose mine is a mid range and a older low end card, so help would still be cooL, i now know that they'll just slow to the slower cards speed, but so much more memory and gpu'ses and i looking at fps extra?

Cant do it, it has to be the same GPU. Like a 7600gt and a 7600gt but can be by different makes!
 
From what I've heard, they only really have to be the same GPU, but ,otherwise, the RAM and clock speeds would be reduced to the lower card......
 
ok thanks guys, wasn't quite sure, i guess 6300gs is a 6 series and 7600gt is a 7 series, makes sense, i'm retarded!
 
I'm also assuming that the RAM should be the same kind (GDDR2 or GDDR3) or else you would probablt find a huge performance loss.....
