In the process of laying a new floor. Bought chipboards a few weeks ago at Byggmax, but they didn't have enough in stock, so I didn't get all I needed. Went there to buy more, as I saw the stock was replenished, but discovered they changed the type.
Is Byggmax's old type available somewhere?
Last time I shop there. Now it's Beijer instead, they always have the same type.

and have you determined that they differ then? I have probably assembled discs of different brands before without problems?
Yes. The old ones look like this:
The new ones look like this:
That is, on the old one the board is equally wide above and below the tongue. But not on the new one.

I have honestly probably only seen the newer type regardless of brand. Is it golvspån the other at all?
According to Byggmax, it is. They seem to be Polish particle boards: Pfleiderer Prospan is what they're labeled.S Stefan1972 said:

Was strange.
I have bought flooring chipboard from byggmax now 5 times.
The first time was 3 years ago and I have only seen the new type that you show in the picture.
Other brands also have similar to the new one.
I have never seen the old type before.

Had to search for byggmax as I have never seen that type. They apparently have both in their range

But I would rather choose the other type as I know it matches more Swedish brands

I went to Beijers and bought boards there instead. Feels like better quality. And they don't change their range all the time.
