Same GPU only. I'd stay with matched cards but they say you can crossfire as long as the GPU's are the same. As a note the faster card will slow to the speed of the slower one

If I were you i would save my money and not get a second x1950 Pro. I would save up for one or two 3850's if you are set on cross-firing two cards.

Cheers!
