That is a shame. So I bought a RX 560 but in reality it is a RX 460?Apparently some 560s are re-branded 460s where the core is dubbed 'Baffin' instead of 'Polaris21' and only have 896 shaders instead of the full 1024. I would advise against flashing , if you can return it and buy a 560 which you are certain it is based on Polaris21.

I would go back to your retailer and suggest that you did not get what you thought you had bought...... namely a proper 560 although I am surprised that a premium model such as the ASUS ROG STRIX EVO would be a cut down substitute.

I bought an new ASUS RX 560 ROG STRIX EVO GAMING card. In GPU-Z it says that the card has only 896 Shaders. I thought that all RX 560 would have 1024 Shaders???
Can I enable the shaders like on a RX 460?

Yeah, I have just been to the site, the only thing I can see that gives it away is just the shader count in the specs, does not appear to be clear on the box from what my old eyes can see.Pretty much.
I blame both AMD and ASUS for this. Although AMD gave this version of the card a proper name , which is 'RX 560D' but ASUS isn't using it. Borderline false advertising in my opinion.
It's quite likely nonDid you unlock it after all? Got 2 of this cards, can`t find a proper bios to unlock all shaders![]()

It’s not because there were never any shaders locked in the first place. Don’t encourage people to brick their cards...It's quite likely unlockable.
When did I do that? I just don't remember the 560D specs, that's why I said it's unlikely.It’s not because there were never any shaders locked in the first place. Don’t encourage people to brick their cards...![]()

You said exactly the opposite and highlighted it....When did I do that? I just don't remember the 560D specs, that's why I said it's unlikely.

You cannot unlock extra shaders. Because your cards do not have the extra shaders to unlock.
Oh sorry, I meant non-unlockable, if that makes sense.You said exactly the opposite and highlighted it....

ive had 7 rx 560D model cards and all of them unlocked (powercolor). did this for a mining rig. the trick is finding a compatible bios for your card. you need to first match all the features on the card such as having a 6pin connector and memory brand. in the ops case i would first try this bios https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/193242/asus-rx560-4096-170426 There is achance that it may not work so be careful but many rx560D cards do unlock just like many rx460 cards.
