Graphic Cards Faulty Sapphire HD 5770 BIOS disables 80 shaders

A BIOS glitch in Sapphire HD 5770 Vapor-X cards seems to be responsible disabling 80 shaders, dropping their number to a total 720, which is what you get on an HD 5750.

Seems a simple enough issue to fix with a bios update.

Only Sapphire HD 5770 have problem ...

Looks to me its just the Vapor X version which has this problem? Or am I mistaken?
