Crossfire with HD 5850 and other 5xxx series card

Question

I am not too sure about the crossfire combinations. I have a HD 5850, do I have to use another 5850 to crossfire or can I use any card from the 5xxx family?

Answer 1

With your HD 5850, you can crossfire with: 5970, 5870, 5850, and 5830 only

Check out this AMD page on crossfire. There's a chart on the bottom
