Another veteran of the ATI/AMD force

You have already read here that ATI/AMD's veteran Chris Hook left AMD after 17 years, and we now know that Sasa Marinkovic, another ATI/AMD veteran will be taking over his reins as director of product marketing.

Chris Hook did a lot for AMD marketing and was quite important but that's now water under the bridge and AMD already had an official statement ready that Sasa Marinkovic will be taking over.

While he has some quite big shoes to fill - and by the way we never examined Hook's feet that closely - Sasa Marinkovic is truly a veteran and has been at ATI/AMD even longer - since 1996 - when he worked as a Senior ASIC Project Manager. He was also behind ATI's PowerXpress - now AMD Enduro - and led the worldwide marketing of GPUs for AMD's fourth generation of graphics processors. That's the AMD HD 4000 series for those who came late to the party.

During the next few years, he was also responsible for marketing AMD GPUs in the EMEA region, led product marketing of AMD's desktop CPUs and APUs, was behind AMD's push in Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA), and for a short time was even responsible for AMD's Gaming and Accelerated Apps portfolio (Gaming Evolved).
