Here is the official comment from AMD…

“It’s correct that 14 Compute Unit (896 stream processors) and 16 Compute Unit (1024 stream processor) versions of the Radeon RX 560 are available. We introduced the 14CU version this summer to provide AIBs and the market with more RX 500 series options. It’s come to our attention that on certain AIB and etail websites there’s no clear delineation between the two variants. We’re taking immediate steps to remedy this: we’re working with all AIB and channel partners to make sure the product descriptions and names clarify the CU count, so that gamers and consumers know exactly what they’re buying. We apologize for the confusion this may have caused.”

So AMD has sort of taken the blame while also placing some on the AIB partners which is a bit weak. It’s not their job to name AMDs’ products for them. They were already selling Radeon RX 560 1024 SPU cards. All etail websites I spoke with didn’t even realize the change had occurred. Anyway hopefully this is sorted and made clear to consumers shortly.
