i don't think it'll work.

I saw some other forums stating that they successfully xfired HD7750 to a8-5600k.. so i was just thinking if it go success on HD7850...

Anything above a 7750 will be severly bottlenecked by the GPU is what information is seen on most websites if you use g00gle.

Probably just run the HD7850.
there are people running HD7750 video cards dual graphics with 5600K on some motherboards,
HD7850 is different chipset, unlikely.

Dual Crossfire is difficult, originally intended with HD6670, 6570,6450, if I recall correctly.
The CPU iGPU is not fast, nor is motherboard memory. Anyway to match, if it can, faster cards have o slow down to share functionality.

There are web posts with 7750, I seem to remember 7770 as possible. The latest chipset is supposed to crossfire better. Faster motherboard memory scales best (which gets expensive.

There were some review posts attempting Dual Crossfire, generally a discrete video card is better and simpler.

^^+1 FTW^^ Single HiPo video card makes the most sense within the limits of the Cpu portion itself.
