dual HD 5770 not working in xfire

I connected the monitor to the second videocard, and got my video display. I am not familiar with crossfire, this is my first dual videocard setup actually. I had read that it doesn't matter what videocard you use for your display, maybe in this case it does?

Upgrade to 5850?

6770 Crossfired with 5770?

Hi all Just wondering if I could crossfire a 6770 with my XFX HD 5770? I understand that the 6770 is basically a more efficient 5770 and uses the same technology, correct? Thanks all!
