Crossfire with Different Manufacturers

Last response: in Graphics & Displays

So they've apparently discontinued my graphics card, the GIGABYTE Radeon 5850 (GV-R585D5-1GD-B), but I heard from someone that you can crossfire the 5850 with one from another manufacturer (eg HIS). Does anyone have any conformation on this? If so, is there a specific guideline I should follow?

My gut is telling me that they won't work, and if they do only a select few would.

EDIT: 5850 in Question
Graphics card Master

You should be fine. BTW, it's brand names, not manufactures.

There are only a handful of manufactures (OEM) out there; one of them is PC Partners and it is the parent company of Sapphire. These OEMs manufacture video cards and slaps brand name stickers on them.
