I see some laptops are coming out using RISC-V cpu arch, will they not have Intel ME/AMD ME ?

    I’m not an expert on this, so take what I’m saying with a grain of salt. RISC-V processors definitely don’t have Intel ME. However, as the RISC-V architecture is open source, some manufacturers could include their own similar coprocessor. Also, AMD doesn’t have anything called ME. Do you mean the PSP (Platform Security Processor), which provides a similar function to the Management Engine?

      Thanks, it’s what I meant, PSP.

      “However, as the RISC-V architecture is open source, some manufacturers could include their own similar coprocessor” 👍 😢 good point
