    I have an Intel Core i7-7700 CPU @3.60 GHz and 64 GB of RAM. Why is Windows update telling me that my CPU is not supported for Windows 11?

    Overqualified CPU for Windows 11? Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GHz

    My Desktop meets all requirements EXCEPT for the Intel CPU = Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GHz.

    The CPU seems more than required and yet is not supported. WHY? Will it be supported in the future??

  3. Intel Core i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz Processor

    I am currently running Windows 10 Pro (Version 21H1) on my Alienware Aurora R6 Desktop PC. When I run the compatibility test, the PC meets all the requirements, except the processor (Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz[Cores 4] [Logical processors 8]). The test indicates this process doesn't meet the requirements, yet this processor is listed on the approved list.

    Can I upgrade?

    Intel Core i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00 Ghz processor Windows 11 Compatible?

    I just ran Microsoft's "PC Health Check" on my desktop pc to check for Windows 11 compatibility and it says the processor doesn't meet the required specifications. I have Intel Core i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00 Ghz processor. Everything else passed the testing.

    However, when I check the processor requirements, the Intel Core i7-6700K CPU is listed as meeting the requirements. Can someone explain this?

    I am running Windows 10 Pro, version 21H1, 64 bit, with 32 GB ram.
