Ok, so at the moment I am Crossfiring an Sapphire ATI HD4850 and XFX ATI HD4850, both have the same specs, 512MB 256bit DDR3 ect... My question though is would there be an increase in Quality of Crossfire if I matched up 2 of the Same Company Graphics Cards like XFX with XFX or Sapphire with Sapphire? and Which company tend to perform better for HD4850's, XFX or Sapphire?

Nope. Wouldn't do a thing, any incense at all would be from one having a better cooler then the other and that is about it. Sapphire does have a Vapor-X model of the 4850 but other then that great cooler you aren't getting any better performance out of CF other then at the best 3-4 frames out of randomness.

Yeah like darkvine said you wouldn't notice any difference at all. Just keep it how it is and it should be fine ^_^
