It's slightly ambiguous whether you mean 'the flaws in AMD IME-near-equivalent are not as bad as the flaws in the IME' or 'AMD's IME-near-equivalent is not as bad as the IME'.
On the 2nd interpretation, it seems that AMD's 'ME' is likely not as powerful/mature as Intel's ME. On the other hand, on certain machines the IME can be disabled or largely neutralised, while I know of no such possibility for AMD.
- chasil 8y agoIntel ME just moved away from ARC processors to an internally-developed 486. The maturity of both platforms is opaque, varying, and the only reasonable feature that most consumers would want is an off switch.
