First, you don't seem to even know what GPUs you have in your system. You say you have 4x R9 280X and one 7950, but from your screenshot it is quite clear that you have 1x R9 290, 2x R9 280X, 1x R9 280, and 1x 7950. The R9 280 and the 7950 are the same GPU, and the R9 280X is just a 7970. So it's much easier and more clear to just say you have 1x R9 290, 2x 7970, and 2x 7950.
Second, you say you have highlighted the "problem child" GPU in yellow in your first two screenshots... EVERYTHING is yellow in your first two screenshots. Probably not the best choice of color.
The amount of memory that oclHashcat reports doesn't matter much, so you can ignore that.
The reason the "problem child" GPU says Hawaii and the others say Tahiti is not because it has a different BIOS, it's because it's from a completely different GPU family.
You're mixing and matching Overdrive5 / PowerTune 1.0 and Overdrive6 / PowerTune 2.0 cards. I don't know how well oclHashcat can handle that. From your screenshots it kind of seems that it doesn't.
No, there is no public repository for beta releases.
The 8 card limit has nothing to do with Crossfire. But I wouldn't bother adding more cards to your system until you work out what you actually have and why you're using what you're using. I wouldn't recommend mixing Hawaii and Tahiti GPUs in the same system.
