← Back to context Comment by shmerl 7 years ago I wish AMD would provide open source AGESA, GPU firmware and CPU microcode. 2 comments shmerl Reply warmwaffles 7 years ago Opensource GPU firmware I am willing to bet has license issues if they were to try and go open source. shmerl 7 years ago Not according to AMD. It's more an organizational issue, since to make it open, they'll need to maintain two versions. One without DRM garbage (HDCP), and one with it. And it costs more to do it naturally. As usual, DRM poison ruins technology.
