Hi guys, I just bought a RX 560 4GB from HIS and it pretty weird.
I have noticed on HIS homepage this is the GREEN version, which is 14 Compute Unit (just like the RX 460), been cut down to 896 Shader Unified, 16/56 ROP/TMU. Underclocked memory to 1500mhz.
I have overclocked memory to 1750mhz got no problem from doing it.
And I noticed a thing that Release Date (highlighted) is Aug 8th 2016, the release date of RX 460.
I have a feeling that my RX 560 was flashed from a RX 460 right out manufacturer. AMD Crimson still recognize it as a RX 560. And someone reported that if you using an older Crimson driver, it will shown as a RX 460
BIOS is BAFFIN instead of POLARIS21 make it more suspicious.
A friend reported his also GREEN version from HIS is a full RX 560.
I'm asking him for the BIOS and thinking about flash his bios to my RX 560 to unlock it to full power.
