R_1 Can you tell me why would you put GCN with Trinity IGP into crossfire? The difference in performance is just too big even against the weakest Cape Verde. Trinity IGP just wouldn't be strong enough to help out significantly, for more look at the Llano review where you can find even a crossfire comparison.
If you want to crossfire with GCN, then wait for Kaveri which will come with an integrated HD7750.
BTW if I remember correctly someone from AMD said VliW4(5) can be paired with GCN but who knows what impact it has on performance even with comparably strong cards.
