I’m surprised Intel would remove a feature that AMD provides in their desktop CPUs.

Sadly, Intel takes another lose here.
There is an issue, though: Intel disabled AVX-512 for its Core 12th, 13th, and 14th Generations of Core processors, leaving owners of these CPUs without them.

Then this is your reminder that ALL AMD CPUs are Unlocked and support overclocking…

True, though it’s worth noting that AMD focus efficiency means that there isn’t a lot of extra performance you can get from their modern CPUs with overclocking.

Yeah, but Intel charges you $200 more for the -K sku so you can find out the same applies to Intel :)

I think it’s less because of their efficiency focus and more because the chips already auto-overclock to reasonably high levels.

Probably some BS market segmentation move.
I imagine they noticed only certain server customers were using those extensions, so decided to limit them to high margin server SKUs.
It would have been a smart move if there weren’t competitors putting that instruction in every CPU.

Common Intel L recently. Shame it effects 12th gen
