5.5 TFLOPS probably means that 2048 SP at 1350 MHz was the true leak, rather than 2304 SP at 1266 MHz. Though whether that's the full chip at all remains to be seen.

AMD Has confirmed 36 CU's for Polaris 10.
Thus... If we assume AMD has gone with the same core layout of 64 Stream processors per CU, then we are looking at 2304 Stream processors.

The 480 GPU's themselves are likely die-harvested as well, probably a 40 CU/2560 SP which might make an appearance later as the Radeon 480X, once yields are sufficient. (14/16nm nodes are pretty new still.)

It is 2304SP @1266 Mhz. I think the choice I have to make is going to be between RX 480 and RX 480X with, like you're saying, 40 CUs. I hope AMD releases this card soon, this summer holiday preferably, they need a card that can take on the 1070 while being cheaper, even just to get better press. I think RX 480X will be more future-proof, but my choice will depend on the price.

BTW. 8GB RX 480 is going to be $229. Not bad, worth the extra $30 in my opinion.

I can't wait for gaming benchmarks and most importantly - custom cards! No way I'm buying the blower 6 pin version Sapphire, don't let me down!
