Can I use Crossfire with two ATI video cards of different manufacturers?

Currently, I own a SAPPHIRE Radeon x1950 PRO (512MB, PCI-e). I plan on purchasing the exact same card in order to use the Crossfire technology.

However, SAPPHIRE does not manufacture x1950 PRO's anymore. I have found other x1950 PRO's that are from companies like POWERCOLOR, DIAMOND, and GECUBE.

Will using Crossfire between:

SAPPHIRE Radeon X1950 PRO

and...

POWERCOLOR Radeon x1950 PRO

... work?


Thanks.
I've found that DIAMOND's x1950 PRO is quite similar to SAPPHIRE'S. Here are the specs:

SAPPHIRE specs:

Chipset Manufacturer ATI
GPU Radeon X1950PRO
Core clock 580MHz
PixelPipelines 12 (36 Pixel shader processor)
Memory
Memory Clock 1400MHz
Memory Size 512MB
Memory Interface 256-bit
Memory Type GDDR3


DIAMOND specs:

GPU/VPU: Radeon X1950 Pro
RAMDAC: Dual 400 MHz
Pixel Pipelines: 12
Maximum Resolution: 2560 x 1600 (Digital)
Video Memory: 512MB
Memory Type: GDDR3
Core Clock: 575 MHz
Memory Interface: 256-bit
Memory Clock: 1380 MHz
I'm still waiting for more answers so I can confirm whether or not I should buy a different manufacturer's card.
