Crossfiring different model cards

[rhgunmasta]

I recently upgraded from a Sapphire 6870 to a Sapphire 7950, so now I have an extra card. Since I don't know much about crossfiring, I thought I would ask you folks if I'd have any benefit in using these two cards in a crossfire configuration?

Perhaps I'll put it to a backup build then. Thank you

Your HD7950 will Crossfire with the new HD7870 LE (it's a cut-down HD7950)
