Every new GPU they've released has either been a 7970, or a 7970 with fewer MCUs, or a 7970 with more MCUs. And sure, a die shrink and maybe some extra cache, whatever. But it's still a fucking 7970. If you don't believe me, just compare the block diagrams for any two GCN GPUs from any generation.
Chill down, Bro. I just wanted to make a pedantic comment, cause some might come to the idea AMD is reproducing _exactly_ the same chip for over six years now.
Is it basically the same architecture since half a decade? Definitly yes.
Is it the same chip shrinked down over and over again? No.
Is it important for hashcat anyway? Not really.
Any reason buying it for hashcat? A big NO.
'Nuff said.
EDIT: nice chart though, you should sell it to AMD and save'em some time
