About this tag
The amd apus tag on WindowsForum.com collects discussion of AMD accelerated processing units and the software that runs on them. Recent coverage centers on Lemonade, the open-source local AI server aligned with AMD, whose 2026.40.0 release candidate fixed a memory check that wrongly blocked disk-streaming models on AMD integrated GPUs such as Ryzen AI Max (Strix Halo). The same release removed OpenMOSS's ROCm backend on Windows and Linux after tests found it roughly 40 times slower than Vulkan. Together these changes show a recurring theme: default settings and backend choices should match how AMD APU hardware actually behaves.
