    If you are running crossfire then both cards need to have the same things in their memory so if you have a 2GB card and a 1GB card they'll both need the exact same things in memory. So your 2GB card will only be able to use 1GB max. So don't waste your money on a 2GB card.

    back it up there, what cpu are you using?
    As AlmightyCushion says theres no point having another card with higher vram as it will just use the lowest common denominator in crossfire( or SLI if you were on Nvidia cards ). It copies the same 3d data to both cards and tells them to render different parts of the screen
