During the recent Bank of America Securities Global Technology Conferece, AMD CFO Devinder Kumar confirmed that Big Navi is indeed AMD's first RDNA 2 product. There were some that thought the next-gen Microsoft Xbox Series X and Sony PlayStation 5 consoles would be the first to drop with RDNA 2-based hardware, but that's not the case: PC will be first.

Kumar said: "there's a lot of excitement for Navi 2, or what our fans have dubbed as the Big Navi". He added that "Big Navi is a halo product" and that "enthusiasts love to buy the best, and we are certainly working on giving them the best".
