Just days after announcing an October 28th launch date for its upcoming Radeon RX 6000-series GPUs, AMD has started teasing its upcoming GPU lineup on social media (and in Fortnite!?). The company, on Monday, shared the first official render of its ‘Big Navi’ graphics card, showing a massive dual-slot reference design cooled by a triple fan setup.

AMD last week announced that it will unveil its next-gen Zen 3-based Ryzen Desktop CPUs (codenamed ‘Vermeer’) on October 8, followed by the Radeon RX 6000-series graphics cards based on the RDNA 2 architecture on October 28. While the former is expected to take on Intel’s ‘Tiger Lake’ processor lineup, the latter is now expected to compete against Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 3000-series cards.
