Yes you can. As long as the cards are the same GPU

Ala, you can crossfire an HD4670 with any HD46xx cards. No matter the size of the memory, or how high they are clocked.

no point crossfiring a 512mb card with 1GB card, turns into the smaller 512mb frame buffer.
Makes more sense to use cards of the same memory size.

Wasn't there a compatibility chart on the ATI site for this exact thing?
