AMD RX 500 series Launch April 4th with three rebrands
We talked about a possible rehash before, but it seems it's now more validated. AMD will be rebranding some of the 400 series graphics cards into the RX 500 series. Starting April 4 you sould see the Radeon RX 570 and RX 580, followed by Radeon RX 550 en RX 560 on April 11th.
The Radeon RX 580 would be a faster version of the RX 480 with a bump in clock frequency towards 1340 MHz. The 570 would be a 38 MHz faster model based on the RX 470. Both models will again be offered in a 4GB and 8 GB version.
The RX 560 is a 460 with 1024 stream processors abd a clock frequency of 1287 MHz. This would make the 560 substantially faster compared to the 460. The RX 550 would be Polaris 12 based, a new low-end SKU. Details on that one are missing.
VEGA will be released later, quite honestly expect that to be released end of May/June in the Computex time frame

They should have upped to clocks to above 1500 and this would be more worthwhile. If Nvidia's GPUs can reach 2000, why on Earth can't AMD get even to 1500?

Well, if you have an XFX RX480 GTR , then you pretty much have the RX580(if nothing will be changed but gpu clock). Running @1400MHz only eating up 80-110 W . In some bench-s going over 110 W.

Asking from the "why another rebrand?" guys: did you also asked it from NV 1060-1080 rebrands? I just can't understand what's the problem with the release of these GPUs. These were rumoured earlier and it's completely independent of the Vega release, which was expected for a May-June start. NV also launches 1060 with higher memory bandwidth, so this step is nothing to cry for.
