AMD Celebrates Radeon Technologies Group's First Year Aiming For The Stars

1 year ago AMD created the Radeon Technologies Grouping. A division with a razor precipitous focus on all things graphics inside the company. Led by graphics guru Raja Koduri who amidst many things was responsible for the very showtime DirectX nine GPU in the industry.

In September 2022, a strategic realignment occurred at AMD to put a singular focus on graphics and bring AMD back to its roots of delivering great loftier-performance computing products. With that, the Radeon™ Technologies Group (RTG) was built-in.

Before creating RTG, the Radeon™ brand was flourishing with potent early leadership in DirectX® 12, a robust lineup of Radeon™ 300 serial graphics cards, and burgeoning VR alliances. Nosotros were delivering great hardware for gamers, but skilful wasn't practiced enough; it was time to make graphics peachy again.

Our vision was to fully revamp and revitalize the Radeon brand. We knew we needed to execute on multiple fronts: hardware, software and marketing. We needed to innovate at a blistering pace, establish leadership positions within new platforms like virtual reality, radically redesign our software ecosystem, develop new technologies, and evangelize premium hardware at affordable prices.

AMD Celebrates Radeon Technologies Grouping'southward First Year Journey Into Space

AMD's highly ambitious power efficiency goals for its Polaris, Vega and time to come graphics architectures is where the naming convention stems from. Stars are the most efficient photon generators in the known universe. Which is why the Radeon Technologies Group found information technology only fitting to proper name its most aggressive architectural roadmap to date later on stars and galaxies. Starting with"Polaris", the brightest star seen from earth.

Raja Koduri expressed his aggressive wish for Radeon graphics technology to ability 90% of the world's pixels early on in his new role every bit caput of the RTG. Polaris was the very first step towards this goal. Efficiency existence central and as stars are the world's most efficient photon generators, Koduri wants his squad'southward graphics applied science to be the world'due south almost efficient pixel generators.

Today marks the one yr anniversary for the group. To commemorate the occasion AMD is jubilant information technology by offering a look back at the past twelve months highlighting the grouping's achievements and milestones to date.
