Is It Possible To Crossfire 3870 & 4850?

[camcafe]

Hello,

 

I was wondering if it is possible to crossfire an ATI 3870 & 4850 card on my Asus P5Q Pro motherboard.

 

I am in this situation where I brought a 3870 for $100 - $30 MIR two weeks ago, then I brought a 4850 card from someone else for $125 couple days ago.

 

If I return the 3870, I will lose $23 due to ($15 restock fee + $8 shipping). So, if it is crossfireable with the 4850 card, I might not lose $23.

 

Thanks for any help or sugguestion.
