May 11, 2024 – It is said that Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) will no longer support Windows 10 on its future Strix Point APUs‹.
The End of Support for Windows 10
Someone who said they were Lenovo’s China manager wrote on Weibo that AMD will stop offering Windows 10 drivers² for the Strix Point APUs. Like every other company, AMD is proud to say that it is an investor in AI, which is why it prefers Windows 11 to 10².
What It Means for Zen 5 CPUs
The same leak also said that the new Zen 5 CPUs give us a taste of the speed boost we can expect. Of course, we still fully expect this to work with Windows 10 drivers⁹.
The Strix Point APUs
The Strix Point mobile chips are made for computers, and all of them come with Windows 11 already installed. These chips put a lot of faith in the new “Ryzen AI” technology, but it doesn’t seem to work with Windows 10 drivers .
Bottom Line
There has been a big change in the tech industry with the choice to stop supporting Windows 10 on the Strix Point APUs. It will be interesting to see how this change affects the laptop market and the tech industry as a whole as AMD keeps coming up with new ideas.
