Intel Xe GPU to launch at Computex 2020?

Posted on Tuesday, October 08 2019 @ 10:53 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Hexus reports Intel's graphics chief Raja Koduri has another vanity plate for his Tesla car. The new number plate spells out "ThinkXE" and the site thinks the expiry date of the plate may provide a clue about the possible launch date of the Xe GPU:

Intel Xe dGPUs should arrive in 2020, we can see from previously published Intel slides and roadmaps. Interestingly, many think that Koduri's latest number plate change provides the key date for the launch of Intel Xe GPUs. If you look closely you can see on the top strip of the number plate, flanking the car's registered US state, is June and 2020. It looks like a Computex 2020 launch event is lined up.

I'd take it with a grain of salt but Computex is probably a good guess.
