    YSK: This feature was disabled with a pushed firmware update.

    Its true it was “not supported”, but the CPU was/is capable of it.

    The big issue here is did AMD disable it accidentally, or did they do it intentionally. If it was intentional why did they not announce it anywhere in the update notes, or anywhere else?
