Raja Koduri hints at June 2020 Intel Xe graphics card launch
For those that have been living under a rock and w onder who the man is, Raja Koduri was the guy behind many Radeon GPUs, and then moved to Intel where he is working on Xe amongst other things. Now, everybody knows that Xe GPUs will see some announcements in 2020, as that was announced.
Something funny happened though, Raja apparently bought himself a Tesla Model X, and on his number plate, he left a few distinct hints. First off, the plate is called THINKXE. That's funny enough already. However, when you look closer at the number palte there are two labels on there that either shouldn't be, or simply are expiration dates of the plate. The first being the obvious 2020. The second one, however, is JUN aka June, and that's Computex timeframe folks. Xe is the development name for Intels Gen12 graphics processor architecture, which will end up in both consumer and commercial enterprise forms. We have to give Raja a thumbs up here, subtle, very subtle.

In the US, some states still require annual registration stickers on the upper corners of the plate. He probably purchased the car in May or June of this year, hence June 2020 registration expiration tags.

Better hope Xe performs well or the 'ThinkXe' license plate won't bring a positive memory.
Like a tattoo you regret the next day.

That's literally when his tag expires.... Hopefully these come to market sooner than later though, time to see some competition

This can mean also that his car registration expires on June 2020. Like on mine. Guess will see.
