- Consumers who filed a claim in the Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) CPUs class action lawsuit have been receiving second payments of up to $8.77 from the settlement fund in early June 2021.

UPDATE:
- On April 21, 2020, approved claimants started receiving Advanced Micro Devices settlement checks in the mail for as much as $152.10.
A class action settlement of $12.1 million will resolve claims that Advanced Micro Devices Inc. misrepresents the number of “cores” in its AMD FX CPUs.
An estimated 1 million consumers are eligible for this Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) CPU class action settlement. Eligible consumers include individuals who, while living in California or after visiting the AMD website, purchased one or more of the following AMD CPUs: FX-8120, FX-8150, FX-8320, FX-8350, FX-8370, FX-9370, or FX-9590.
The AMD CPU class action was filed in November 2015, over claims that the computer processor company misrepresented their “Bulldozer” lines of CPUs. The company allegedly marketed these CPUs as having “8 cores” but the AMD CPU class action alleged that the products only contained four cores.
Plaintiff Tony Dickey allegedly purchased two of AMD’s Bulldozer CPUs in March 2015 after seeing advertisements that the products contained “8 cores.” In his AMD CPU class action, Dickey argues that he would not have made his purchases if he knew the representations were false or, if he did purchase the CPUs, he would have paid less for them.
Advanced Micro Devices Inc. has not admitted any wrongdoing but has agreed to pay $12.1 million to resolve the AMD CPU class action claims against them. The settlement fund will cover administration fees, court costs, attorneys’ fees, Class representative awards, and payments to Class Members.
The settlement will provide up to $300 per CPU purchased. Exact compensation per CPU will depend on the number of valid claims filed and the number of CPUs claimed. Each CPU will be associated with a proportional share of the net settlement fund.
Class Members can claim up to five CPU purchases without providing proof of purchase. If they wish to claim any more than five, Class Members must provide proof of purchase in the form of receipts or other documentation.
To benefit from the AMD CPU class action settlement, Class Members need to submit a Claim Form online or through the mail by Jan. 3, 2020. The deadline for exclusion and objection is Dec. 9, 2019. The final approval hearing for the settlement is scheduled for Feb. 20, 2020.
