TL;DR

• Reports from users and comments from hardware manufacturers suggest that AMD may have discontinued support for the Ryzen Z1 Extreme APU.


• This would mean that several high-end PC gaming handhelds running Windows 11, like the ASUS ROG Ally, will no longer receive new drivers.


• As a result, these handhelds could miss out on day-one optimizations for major game releases, which could lead to performance issues.

The handheld PC gaming market is full of options to choose from, be it the Steam Deck, MSI Claw, Lenovo Legion Go, and so on. If you’re thinking about picking one up for yourself, you may want to avoid any handhelds with an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme APU. Troubling reports cast serious doubt on the longevity of these devices.
