I can only say one card and the reason for it is that it has a dual BIOS.  That means there will be custom BIOS tweaks for making it more efficient for mining.  No other custom card at this time has a dual BIOS but the Sapphire Nitro and Nitro+.

If you want to know how important a dual BIOS is than let me tell you I flashed by R9 280x once and it failed miserably that part of the card was bricked.. Opened up my case push the BIOS button rebooted back into windows than pushed that BIOS switch and reflashed the BIOS.  That custom BIOS worked for me that time and I was back in business. But if I did not have that dual BIOS I would of had a bricked card and out of luck.
