Intel Sends Out Latest Patches For Mitigating Graphics Flaw On Ivybridge/Haswell
Thanks @chithanh that's great to know. Now let's hope the T495/T495S AMD successors get a ton of high-end features. If not I may settle for an X1 Extreme with AMD GPU
I could use a replacement for my spouses X495 dual module Llano laptop.
That's it. No Thinkpad Yoga, no L-series, no X1, no 11-series AMD. The Thor-TP name sounds interesting but I am fairly sure that one is not AMD.
So when it comes to Lenovo business models, there has been exactly zero progress on AMD model selection since the launch of Picasso (which had the T495s and X395 over Raven Ridge). AMD Renoir expanded mostly into plastic consumer laptop territory.

With constant news like this, I'm really looking forward to replacing my 3570k desktop and Thinkpad X250 with an 8 core Ryzen 4000 laptop.
I hope Lenovo launches a new Thinkpad X1 Extreme based on AMD. Doubt it will happen but one can hope. A T series with AMD and high-end specs would suffice too.

I'm waiting impatiently for a laptop coming with decent AMD graphics to replace my M395X. I don't think the 5700M is too far away, but I'm hoping there might be a 5800M/5900M part

Phoronix: Intel Sends Out Latest Patches For Mitigating Graphics Flaw On Ivybridge/Haswell
It has been one month and a few days since Intel first made public the need for graphics driver patching of Gen 7/7.5 graphics for older Ivybridge / Haswell hardware to fix a graphics hardware flaw. That vulnerability also affected the common Intel Gen9 graphics but there the mitigation was uneventful and quickly merged without causing any performance hit. But for Ivybridge/Haswell one month later the graphics driver mitigation for CVE-2019-14615 is still being addressed...
