All outstanding legal disputes between Intel and AMD have been settled, and the companies have signed a five-year cross-licensing deal.

The settlement, announced yesterday, ends antitrust litigation against Intel in which the chip giant was accused of alleged anti-competitive practices towards AMD. Intel will pay AMD $1.25bn in the deal.

Intel and AMD will share patent rights across all products in the five-year deal.
