I have an old Powercolor OEM 6970 2GB model and I just realized/remembered that I could crossfire it and get a little more performance out of it before I finish setting up my new rig with Polaris when it releases. Anyway, I saw a Powercolor OEM 6950 1GB model on newegg for a very low price and was wondering about the difference in GDDR5 sizes. Does crossfire use a master/slave relationship where it uses the RAM on the primary card while the second one is there as a supporting role or do the GPU's "mirror" each other where I would get only one GB of GDDR5? I searched all over the net and there wasn't much information on it and people seemed divided on the answer. If any of you has personally tried a similar configuration, please let me know.
Here is a picture of my setup in case you might find a reason crossfire won't work on it:
