One flagged so far: on question 24 ("Who makes Hypertune, and is it partnered with Intel, AMD or NVIDIA?"), all five engines leave out the AMD partnership (Hoa, run 1). Traced 28 Oct (E6-1): no public page states an AMD partnership. The launch press (GamesBeat, Tom's Hardware, TechPowerUp, TweakTown) describes an Intel partnership and AMD support only, and hypertune.gg says "official Intel and AMD toolkits" but never "AMD partner". Fix: state it in text on the homepage, /technology and /what-hypertune-changes once Austin confirms. Owner Som (wording, 29 Oct call). Any statements Hoa flags from run 2 follow on 5 Nov.
