Check out this Toms Hardware graphic card benchmark chart to get a basic idea of how 4850s in crossfire will stack up against a single faster card. They also have pretty good recommendations in the Best Graphic Cards for the Money articles.

Also consider that adding a 2nd graphic card is going to draw a lot of power and add heat to the case interior. If you go this route make sure your power supply and cooling is up to the task.
