The are Cape Verde based asics (Southern Islands family). They are supported by the radeon kernel module and they use the radeonsi mesa driver for 3D, etc. amdgpu is a kernel driver for VI (Volcanic Islands) and newer parts. The radeonsi mesa driver supports SI and CI parts supported by the radeon kernel driver and VI parts supported by the amdgpu kernel driver.
