Raja Koduri officially joins Intel as Chief Architect

Wow! This is huge for Intel, and how does this effect the new SOC with HBM and Discrete graphics story from a few days ago? I can't imagine how there was not a Non-Compete clause in his separation agreement.

The interesting this is that in California, where Intel is based, the state has a ban on anti-competition clauses in contracts. IE, there is nothing stopping him from moving to Intel legally speaking, provided he doesn't take any AMD IP with him.

It will be interesting to see what Intel does with Raja's talents.
 
When leaving AMD he said:
"I will continue to be an ardent fan and user of AMD technologies for both personal and professional use"

What a Hypocrite!
 
Some interesting speculation has arrisen in that with Raja Kaduri still being under a non compete clause "Could" indicate a possible take over and or merger between Intel and RTG.
Which lets face it if it did happen this would give RTG the funds necessary to take Nvidia on and possibly beating them in the GPU market which is great for us consumer as better products and hopefully better prices.

Well Intel already make CPU's, SSD's and their new Optane memory, GPU's would fill out the roster nicely.

Non-compete contracts are not legal in the state of California. Raja is literally free to work wherever he likes, provided he does not take any of AMD's IP with him.

But Intel are based in Texas I believe so he is bound by it hence that they may be doing a merger ;)
 
I don't think any non-compete is really enforceable in court.
They are stupid. Say you leave a job in some field and the only other company nearby in the same field is a direct competitor, they have some divine power to prevent you from earning a living? Nah BS mate.
 
Yeah this makes sense. Cali has quite good laws on how you can treat your employees. That's why my fat old tart of an ex boss moved from CA to NJ, so she could basically tread on every one. The laws in NJ are ridiculous. They can fire you because they don't like your haircut and you have no recourse.

God she was a bitch. What she used to do was hire people, get the best out of them (before they realised it was a dead end job and started to get tired/depressed) then she would basically cut their hours down to about 10 so they could not afford to work there. Then they would have no option but to quit, and she did not have to pay unemployment.

The way she treated people was just disgusting tbh.
 
Intel have a large establishment here in Ireland because the Irish government don't tax large corporations nearly as much as other nations. Apple has a sizeable presence here in Ireland as well.

Oh yeah they're all at it tbh. If you went looking for work in NJ you would get about 30 ads for call centres. That was where they all were FFS. And they all lied to get you in "You will make $15 per hour easy !" and the reality was more like $9 and you would have to chuck up a lung to make that much.

BS tbh. Companies should not be allowed to hide. We should have proper RMA centres in the UK, too. Sending stuff to Holland and Germany is BS.
 
The Idea of an Intel acquisition of the RTG is really fascinating. I will be watching to see if there is any IP or patent claims from RTG in the future. How do you decide this. Raja has knowledge and you can't just take that away
