A few days ago we told you that Big Navi would arrive during 2020, and today we can already confirm that we will have a new generation of graphics cards from AMD this year . The new AMD RDNA2 GPUs will support Ray Tracing and its innovative AMD VRS technology.
AMD with RDNA2 should get closer to Nvidia's RTX series
AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su confirmed that her company will launch its second generation RDNA this year. This new generation "RDNA2" would have the new manufacturing process at 7nm + (EUV) by the TSMC company, we will have an increase in speed in its graphic chip, more transistors in its manufacture and therefore a theoretical higher performance.
Although the appearance of Ray Tracing in AMD graphics seems like a great success, the incorporation of VRS technology (variable speed shading) seems even more interesting to us. This technology, in principle, will allow the graphics card to focus on the most complex parts, that is, it will send more power where our screen has more action. What do we achieve with this? Save resources and reduce the high consumption of AMD graphics cards. We will see in practice!

When will this new generation of AMD graphics cards be introduced? According to Lisa Su they will arrive during the month of March at the event: 2020 AMD Investor Day Conference. We have it around the corner. What do you think about AMD graphics cards? Do you think Big Navi will compete from you to you with the high-end of Nvidia?
