Unfortunately, Lisa Su hasn't given any details on "Big Navi, " but the implication is that we should expect an AMD high-end graphics card that will aim to stand up to the RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti.
We expect AMD to unveil "Big Navi" at E3 2020, which will arrive after Microsoft's Xbox Series X launch.
