You can see here why he is so valuable. He understands the tech and more importantly, he understands the people. Adding to that, he is able to bridge between them, pointing everyone in the right direction, and doesn't even want to take the credit. A very unique combination of skills, cool to see!
And he is why i took my entire income tax return and bought all the shares I could of AMD at 1.88 a share. Original thought was if it worked out I would be able to take gains and build a top of the line system. That was the best investment I ever made.
Not sure what you mean? Jim Keller literally saved AMD and is directly responsible for their technological success today (ZEN) and its future long after he left.
As a technology industry hobbyist, I find it important to give credit where it’s due. AMD might not be here as we know it with without Jim Keller and his teams that redesign of its Zen architecture-an effort led by Jim Keller. Remarkably, this wasn’t Keller’s first-time reshaping AMD’s fortunes. In the late ’90s, he was instrumental when AMD first outpaced Intel and introduced x86-x64 with AMD64. Decades later, he was at the helm once again, orchestrating the Zen renaissance that put AMD back ahead of Intel. Despite his transformative contributions as chief architect, Keller rarely gets the spotlight he deserves. When Keller returned, I was so sure the company would do well that I bought AMD at $1.50. History has a way of repeating itself, especially when visionary leaders return to the companies they helped define. Steve Jobs built Apple into something extraordinary, then left, then Apple nearly went bankrupt (but saved by Microsoft of all things), then Jobs came back and transformed Apple into the world’s most valued company. Ironically, these visionaries often face internal skepticism, even from their own boards, who struggle to grasp their long-term vision. Yet, without such forward-thinkers, many of the world’s most iconic companies might never have reached their true potential.
All the great minds that worked on Zen really show in its performance !
