AMD does the same thing too. Ryzen APUs don't have (even unofficial) ECC support, except if you pony up for a Ryzen Pro one.
(and so do many other SoC providers...)
- StillBored 5y agoOfficial support, doesn't mean it doesn't work. Although your right AMD does a bit of product segmentation here/there. The laptop space while considerably simpler is not only segmented by core count, but threading, and TDP. I've been expecting them to just simplify to a core count/memory channel/socket matrix for a while because they are so close. There really isn't any reason these days to segment by frequency beyond maybe a couple golden parts where all the cores run at the peak frequency.
- my123 5y ago> Official support, doesn't mean it doesn't work For Ryzen CPUs (ones without an iGPU), they don't fuse it off, and as such it can unofficially work. For Ryzen APUs (parts with an iGPU), they fuse it off, and as such it will never work there.
- kllrnohj 5y agoSlightly different in the AMD case as the Ryzen Pro are the same socket and not really much more expensive (eg, https://www.amazon.com/Ryzen-4750G-Processor-3-6Ghz-Threads/dp/B08XYTM5QS https://www.amazon.com/Ryzen-4750G-Processor-3-6Ghz-Threads/... ). So as a consumer you can make a fairly straightforward value prop tradeoff there. Well, you could except AMD throws in the complication that they no longer sell APUs directly to consumers, not officially anyway. These are all technically "OEM only" parts.
- Dasateam 5y ago5600G and 5700G are sold directly to consumers, the Pro variants aren't. Only the 4000G series was completely OEM-only for some reason.
