Daniel<p>There are <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Framework13" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Framework13</span></a> models now with <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/AMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AMD</span></a> CPUs! This is getting interesting for many reasons! 👀</p><p>1. The AMD Ryzen AI CPUs come with a <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/NPU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NPU</span></a> based on <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/XDNA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>XDNA</span></a> from the <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Xilinx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Xilinx</span></a> acquisition. In practice <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/AMDXDNA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AMDXDNA</span></a> only made it into Linux 6.14 (e.g. in the very recent Fedora 42) and there is no end user support as of today making the NPU dead hardware as of today and probably most of 2025.</p><p>2. The AMD Ryzen CPUs come with AVX512 and that's working end to end unlike whatever the f <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Intel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Intel</span></a> is doing there.</p>
