AMD silently removes memory encryption from consumer Ryzen CPUs, leaving users unaware that they may be vulnerable β€” security feature vanishes after newer AGESA firmware, AMD engineers go radio silent when pressed about the change

AMD has reportedly stripped TSME from consumer Ryzen processors after years of working support, with testing suggesting newer AGESA firmware disables the memory-encryption feature while Pro and EPYC CPUs remain unaffected.

AMD reaches almost 45% CPU share in the latest Steam Hardware Survey for Windows gaming PCs β€” Ryzen is steadily gaining ground against Intel's legacy domination

The latest Steam Hardware Survey is out and it's showing positive signs of growth for AMD, while Intel is unfortunately on a decline. The Red Team posted its best-ever CPU market share numbers in May 2026 with 45% of all CPUs on Windows being from AMD, while Intel is down to 55%, which is still more for now.

Intel will reportedly upgrade its Wildcat Lake refresh to an 8-core config next year, leak claims β€” top-end silicon tipped to feature 4 P-cores and 4 LP-E cores as part of 'Core 400' series

Intel's Wildcat Lake refresh that's supposedly debuting next year will shift focus to a more upmarket audience, only refreshing its Core 5 and Core 7 tiers. The new silicon at the top-end would feature 8 cores, up from 6 cores on Wildcat Lake right now, with the 4 P-cores and 4 LP-E cores. The Core 3 parts are claimed to remain unchanged.
