Intel could score Raja Koduri, fresh from the arms of Radeon
Technologies Group and AMD
It wasn't even a couple of hours ago that news broke that
Raja Koduri, the boss of Radeon Technologies Group, left AMD. Now rumors are
starting with "sources closed to the related companies" telling
WCCFTech that Koduri would be joining Intel.
Raja leaving AMD and joining Intel will surely be
interesting, with AMD CEO Lisa Su currently in talks with analysts to try and
minimize the impact of Raja's departure to AMD. Raja's future at Intel could
truly be bright, since Intel just yesterday announced a collaboration with AMD
using their semi-custom division to build a new chip that would use Raja's work
from Vega, into Intel's new Kaby Lake-G products. This new Intel/AMD team up was birthed from
Raja's vision, and a day after it was announced he's out of the company. I
reached out to industry sources to confirm the news earlier today, and then
asked about Intel, to which they said nothing is concrete yet. They did confirm
that Raja would fit perfectly at Intel, either working in their new Intel/AMD
products, or working on a new discrete GPU for Intel, with Intel's near
unlimited pocket
