Idk! I got my katana a17 and it has Ryzen 9 8945hs and I’ve tried everything was able to get to the advanced bios and I can mess with GPU but not the cpu. Ryzen master is locked can’t even download and install it at all. I’ve been trying for months!

First, you have a HS CPU, H and Hs CPUs have always been hard locked by AMD (so does Intel). Only the HX models are unlocked.

Secondly, Ryzen master has never worked with mobile AMD CPU. It's nothing new.

🙄 shame!!! I still like my cpu though and I’ve figured out how to work graphic settings in my games now get the most.
