Yeah, pretty bizarre, having full 2048 shaders like 9060XT, especially if those rumored clocks are true, since it pits it at pretty much the same TFLOPS as 9060. I can really figure how that would be cheaper than 9060, which most likely uses silicon that was not good enough for 9060XT.
At this point I'm thinking it must be a false rumor - 1024 shaders would make much more sense for 9050.
