Polaris refresh?

seems this "should" of been the card made in reference to the other open thread

seems a bit more then a Step-up process. Maybe AMD rushed a little to get the card to the market. Really believe these chips or like wise are powering the Console Refresh versions .

key question in terms, how many RX 480 owners would sell and trade in for the new version if true.
Would also sit as a nice place holder between the RX 480 and Vega 11 if its to be called 485 or the fabled 490 that popped up on AMD's site. Vega could get the Fury name sake, as its a different ball game.
 
if rumors are true, most likely keep the 480 naming and uses the better chips is the 8GB version - since its the flag ship and has the higher clocking ram and keep the other chips based on the 4Gb until this run out, but still keep same speeds as stated above.
would give the 8GB a clear advantage over the 4gb version and allow for a bit of a price bump to really separate the two models, almost like the 1060 6gb/1060 3GB
