I've been thinking of selling my gtx 980 and going for SLI 970(they cost less than 400 eur for both), i know im a fucking idiot but its bound to have better performance than a single 980, my question is can i mix and match manufacturers like lets say MSI and Gigabyte? I come from AMD where you can throw in a potato along with an rx480 and it will crossfire

I have 2 970 in SLI, they are all as low as 150 EUR each. You can mix manufactures, no problem, but try to match base clocks to avoid a well known problem I, and others had: when running at max freq. both cards downclocks a lot.
I have 2 same cards model but their chips are different asic quality, so they are clocked slightly different. I had to OC a little one of them (12 Mhz only) to match the good one, and the problem disappeared,

SLI support has been waning the past couple of years.

This.
Developers are slowly ditching sli support, in hidden agreements with card manufacturers, so they can sell new cards every year, in exchange for a compensation.
Maximum jewing.

Don't use SLI or crossfire. Microstuttering is a bitch.

well AAA games still seem to support it desu and for indie games or smaller titles the 970 will most likely do fine

Not much with Goyvidya, I only saw it 2 or 3 times in years. in some titles.
Cannot say about crossfire, they said its microstuttering hell.
