With dual slot design, triple fans, and dual 8-pin power, it is surely a Big Navi sample.

A huge improvement on previous reference designs!

No custom power connector, madness!

Looks like cheap CGI to me. Who wants a cartoon in their machine? FFS AMD.... (kidding)
Interesting to see they are keeping USB-C for virtual link. I thought they announced last week the standard was being dropped due to lack of uptake?
Re: AMD showcases its Radeon RX 6000 video card design
Im not sure it is actually virtual link, i think it is just a usb-c for video without the other stuff like power delivery that virtual link also included and nvidia blamed for increasing the power requirement on the 20xx series.

Nvidia dropped the USB port on their GPUs, but AMD hasn't had one before

Maybe it's not Virtual Link but rather standard DisplayPort over USB-C? Meaning AMD might be pushing for USB-C monitors now...

Yep. That looks like a graphics card.

Is that a subtle hint that graphics cards are going to be Epic Store exclusives too, now? :p

They considered partnering with EA but didn't fancy customers paying £800 to see what was in the box, only to find it was a 4650 refurb in 90% of cases ;)

This reminds me of the fortnite boss saying Fortnite wont be used primarily for advertising...

Completely agree, but...
I mean, that side profile, how hard was it for them to remove the word "Titan" and replace it with "Radeon"?

Also they dont want Apple taking 30% of the card and it only turning up with 2 fans and two thirds of the VRAM
Re: AMD showcases its Radeon RX 6000 video card design
No need for 2 new power connectors... no idea why NVIDIA did that stunt, but it is unlikely that the PSU manufactureres would cater solely for nvidia those ways anyway, so would need a converter plug anyway.
