Correct... R9. AMD is spinning around with GPUs and will introduce two sub-$180 graphics cards specifically for OEMs. It is the the "Cape Verde" based Radeon R9 255 and the "Bonaire" based Radeon R9 260.AMD updated its website to show R9 255 and R9 260 in the Radeon R9 section of its OEM products page.
Lists of these entries in latest drivers:
1002&DEV_665C&SUBSYS_29321462
"%AMD665C.2%" = ati2mtag_R505, PCIVEN_1002&DEV_665C&SUBSYS_29341462
"%AMD665C.3%" = ati2mtag_R505, PCIVEN_1002&DEV_665C&SUBSYS_8770148C
"%AMD665C.4%" = ati2mtag_R505, PCIVEN_1002&DEV_665C&SUBSYS_9260148C
"%AMD665C.5%" = ati2mtag_R505, PCIVEN_1002&DEV_665C
Descriptor "%AMD665C.2%" is linked to R9 255, and "%AMD665C.4%" with R9 260. Device IDs of the two also point at R9 255 being based on the "Cape Verde" silicon, and R9 260 being based on "Bonaire."
