NOTE:It is ALWAYS recommended you use the same two kinds of cards (two of the same cards is the best, but two 1080s from different companies will suffice), but that isn't to say two GTX 960s with SLI would be bad. ANY SLI is good, no matter the card type, and it in no way is bad if you have "cheaper cards". There are no problems with cheap cards.
I used to run crossfire and it didn't work well at all. For every game that worked with crossfire 5 didn't work well, some outright crashed if I tried to run them in crossfire,so I figured same was true for SLI. However, I've tried googling because of your comment and it looks like SLI doesn't have that problems, so sorry for wrong information.
