Windows 10: Are desktops with AMD processors, going to be Windows 11 compatible?

I have a Desktop just under 2 years old it has an AMD processor, the only thing stopping from being Windows 11 compatible, I had the TPM 2.0 activated in BIOS, now the only thing stopping is it isn't an Intel Processor? Are Microsoft going to release it for AMD processors, I have used Intel processors before as I have AMD, apart from price they both work?

Introducing Windows 11

It looks like processors after 2018 will be supported. Here is a list of processors; Windows 11: List of Intel, AMD and Qualcomm Processors Compatible and Official Minimum System Requirements - MySmartPrice

hmmm, my A10 Athlon isn't on the list so I'll have to upgrade processor and motherboard on two PC's. *Tongue

 

how compatible are AMD processors?

To avoid any confusion:
AMD64 does not refer to an AMD processor but to the current 64 bit architecture.

Intel's entry into 64 bit was the Itanium processor. It showed promise but was a commercial failure. Today there are relatively few such computers and few operating systems that will run on it. This is high end server and workstation hardware.

AMD went a different route by designing 64 bit extensions to the 32 bit CPU instructions. AMD quite naturally called this architecture AMD64 and that is the name Microsoft uses.. It is also referred to as x86-64. Intel later obtained a license to produce processors with this architecture, as AMD had earlier for the x86 architecture.

There are significant differences between AMD and Intel processors but they matter primarily at the hardware level. They use different sockets. It isn't difficult for software to tell the difference but most doesn't have the need.

Software compatibility between AMD and Intel processors is near 100%. The biggest class of software that won't run on AMD systems is utility and information software designed specifically for Intel motherboards and processors. Of course with an AMD system you have no use for such.
