It's likely that old cards still work with v4 firmware,

No, it's absolutely impossible. Rev 2/4 cores have a totally different
instruction set in the microcode.

Ok, I was not talking about _that_ old cards. ;)

Are there cards where they have new microcode instruction set but no v4
firmware?

I don't know. I guessed so. Am I wrong? That would be good :)

I wouldn't think so since we have rev5 v4 firmware and that should be
the oldest post-rev4 right?
