Besides NVIDIA's GP104 "Pascal" GPU, several AMD GPUs also showed up on shipping manifest tracking website Zauba.

Four parts made an appearance: the AMD C913, C924, C980 and C981. These may be the first Radeon Rx 400 series graphics cards. VideoCardz speculates the C980 and C981 could be Polaris-based high-endish parts, while C913 and C924 are possible entry-level or mid-range models:
The C980 and C981 are likely based on the same chip. What’s interesting the price of C98X boards seems to be higher than Hawaii XT boards (which can also be found on Zauba). This means we are probably looking at first high-end Polaris chips, but not necessarily Fury replacement just yet. Just for clarity, the Fiji boards are C880 (Fury X), C882 (Nano) and C883 (Fury X2). The C913 and C924 are quite possibly entry-level or mid-range solutions.
