AMD has changed the specifications of the AMD RX 560 graphics cards without saying anything and now it can have either 1024 Stream Processors or 896 Stream Processors.
AMD's latest move, unreported, is extremely rare in the graphics card market. It seems that the company, without saying anything to anyone, has changed the specifications of the AMD RX 560. Manufacturers can sell slower graphics cards, going from the 1024 Stream Processors of this graphics card to the 896 Stream Processors, under the same name, a fairly clear anomaly in the market and that can be a problem for users, who might buy a product thinking that it will perform well and then find less power.
The RX 560 so far was based on a Polaris GPU with 1024 Stream Processors. This graphics card has a higher performance than the RX 460, the graphics card that in theory it replaces and that had 896 Stream Processors. A few weeks ago we already reported that AMD was launching a revision of the RX 560, which in this case had been renamed the RX 560D, which had 896 Stream Processors and would have a lower price. Here the situation seems correct, since the name had been changed.
It seems that recently, the 'D' models have appeared on the market in general, but in this case there is no discrimination between models and they are all called RX 560, finding in this case graphics with 896 Stream Processors and not graphics with 1024 Stream Processors. The AMD website indicates that the RX 560 may have 896/1024 Stream Processors, a change made by the company, which has not been communicated to the media and users and represents a very rare and uncommon movement in the market. Will AMD give any explanation about it?
