Intel Splits Graphics Group Into Two
Intel Corporation announced recently that it would split its AXG graphics group into two: Accelerated Computing Systems and Graphics (AXG) business unit and Data Center and AI (DCAI) business unit. The move aligns them with being best suited for competing with NVIDIA and AMD. The consumer-focused portion of the AXG business unit will be combined with Intel’s Client Computing Group (CCG), which focuses on creating platforms around the company’s CPU products. On the other hand, the teams managing the data centre and supercomputing GPUs, like the Ponte Vecchio and Rialto Bridge products, will be transferred to the Data Center and AI (DCAI) business unit. Additionally, Raja Kodouri, who previously led the AXG division, will now be the Chief Architect to focus on their expanding efforts in the fields of CPU, GPU and AI, as well as in accelerating high-priority technical programs. Naveed Sherwani, President and CEO at RapidSilicon, said, “This is a good move. Raja is a solid leader with great credentials. We hope this move helps Intel to improve its culture. The priority should be on listening to customers, getting products out on time and rewarding performance and merit inside the company.” Intel recently also announced the launch of Data Center GPU Max Series, the industry’s highest-density processor, packing over 100 billion transistors on 47 active tiles and up to 128 Xe-HPC cores. In addition, the whole Max series—both its CPU and GPU—is powered by oneAPI, an open-source programming model that enables developers to leverage several accelerated architectures.
