AMD officially confirms no more Windows 10 chipset driver and support for the new Ryzen AI 300 series
Recently, a report broke that AMD was not too keen on extending Windows 10 support to its newest Strix Point parts. The company has now officially confirmed that that is indeed the case.
You're viewing a single thread.
People, shall we read the full article first?
Meanwhile, this is not the case with the Ryzen 9000 series desktop parts as the spec sheet of that says:
OS Support
Windows 11 - 64-Bit Edition , Windows 10 - 64-Bit Edition , RHEL x86 64-Bit , Ubuntu x86 64-Bit
So the new Ryzen AI chips that most people don't care about won't support Win 10, but Ryzen 9000 (the real deal desktop chips) will.
To be frank, the article title is misleading at best.
My lazy ass decided to just go with the copied title generated by Lemmy when making the post. I edited the title, thanks for mentioning that!

When in doubt, I just get the title from the article and add important context or copy an important paragraph from the article into the body. Then get a link to an archive if the article is payable paywalled.
Thanks, I always appreciate a proper wording that avoids click bait and rage bait headlines
just curious but wouldn't it still be better for most users to consider migrating to Linux considering that
- Windows 11 is shit
- Windows 10 is going EOL on October 14, 2025?
The Windows 10 support on Ryzen 9000 to me seems like AMD's providing users a last hail mary to jump ship towards Linux before shit goes downhill as Windows 11 seems like a terrible decision to support considering Microsoft's countless terrible decisions
Edit
hmm based on the sizeable downvotes it looks like I fucked up
gonna have to reflect on this and see where I messed up
I don't think it's true that people don't care about the Ryzen AI chips. Stupid name for sure, but this is really Strix Point, the laptop chips. What that really implies is that any AMD laptops going forward will not support W10, which will affect quite a large number of people
