My guess would be that most cards will fight with running 2 of the same type. Since both use the same device driver, the system wouldn't know which one it's talking to. To make matters worse, the same resources would be likely assigned to both. I heard some really expensive cards can be run more than one per machine, but not sure what kind. I thought someone told me they cost around $700. I would just get another brand, but it has to not use any of the drivers you already have.
