I actually meant line cards. So if I understand correctly both boxes have at least 2x6904. How many of your cards have the low revision number? 1 in the box or 2 
? Does moving these cards change which box is software switching?

Interfaces are in routed mode with several subinterfaces configured; there's a clear pattern in the subinterfaces that are fully hardware switched and subinterfaces that are partially software switched. There's at least one subinterface where I can manipulate the config; when adding PBR it goes to fully hardware switched, when removing PBR it goed to partially in software. And exactly the same configs always work fully hardware switched in router B.
