I already have two 7970's, I've been thinking about picking up 2 more cards. Can I grab 2 7950s and add them to the system without stability/compatibility issues?

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Yes cards in a series (7900 series in this case) should be problem free.

Rock on. I knew I could mix crossfire in the same series. I just wasn't sure about two separate crossfires in the same machine.

Appreciate it!

If you're Crossfiring for mining only, you're doing it wrong.
