AMD hasn’t dropped vega drivers though… they moved them to a legacy release cycle, which means they’ll get drivers for Windows 10/11 but at a much slower rate without new features. Adrenalin 23.11.1 is the latest Vega driver… Just checked the Ryzen 3 2200U is still on the latest driver…
What they do, do is reduce the rate of updates, EG if something breaks polaris in a driver update it might be a few months before those cards get on a new driver… in the grand scheme of things its a non issue for 99% of users.
Meanwhile AMD drops Vega drivers, and any other support for such an old CPU, and gets away with selling it.
What does Vega drivers have to do with these CPUs? Vega are GPUs.
