        Still someone has to actually work on the driver updates. Also doesn’t sound too good that support lasted so short time that most likly there’s still devices produced with the unsupported chip.

          Mesa drivers are generic enough that improvements for other GPUs of the same architecture result in improvements for those GPUs as well.

    Hi Community, I’m really sorry, but I don’t understand what it means for Linux ? Can anyone explain in few sentences?

      If you bought any of these devices and use Windows on it, you are done receiving driver updates.

      If you are running Linux on it, you will have driver updates because if the manufacturer updates the same architecture, it will benefit your specific chipset too.

      Nothing. Linux drivers get updated as usual.
