The chief architect behind Intel's Xeon line of server CPUs is leaving Chipzilla for greener pastures. Senior fellow and Xeon Chief Ronak Singhal's nearly 30-year tenure at the x86 giant will come to an end later this month, according to a CRN report, which The Register has independently confirmed. The Carnegie Mellon alum holds degrees in electrical and computer engineering, along with at least 30 patents involving CPUs. Singhal joined Intel in 1997 after spending the previous summer as an intern at Cyrix.

Nvidia is officially bringing its CUDA software stack to RISC-V CPUs, enabling processors based on this architecture to serve as host CPUs for Nvidia GPUs.
