Subject: Dual Quadro M4000 GPU's

I have one Quadro M4000 and have purchased another new one for much less than the going price to go with it. I need Quadro's for my software otherwise would have gone with one of the top GeForce cards (or 2). NVIDIA says that only certain workstation systems are SLI capable. My build of course is not on their short list. I had been looking at getting a Tesla to pair with the M4000 but talked to NVIDIA support and they said I could not mix the Kepler Tesla with the Maxwell Quadro M4000. He did say that the best bang for my buck would be to buy another M4000. Two M4000 card, not in SLI, have more throughput for may applications than a the M5000, and more CUDA cores.
I see that there has been hack software to run Quadro's in SLI in systems other than the anointed ones. My question is there any harm in trying to get it into SLI? My Extreme 7+ supports it.
Ideas?
