Why do you think Apple didn't wanted the Polaris 10?
Because we got a fully enabled Polaris 10 right out the gate. When Apple lays claim to a new GPU we only seem to get the reject chips they don't want, or at least that is what happened last time with Tonga. Their leverage over AMD is massive.
Hell it took over a year after the 285 release for us to finally get a full Tonga on a non Apple product.
And OSX has always supported more cards than they technically ship with. I have been hackintoshing for 11 years and not once did I have the exact GPU a Mac had. Driver support gives no indication to future Mac products, but a crappy leaking cut down 460 does.
