Windows 10: When will Windows11 add support for more Intel i7 processors?

I currently have an Intel Core i7-4500U processor in my laptop older, but still works great with Windows10.

Replace AMD Processor With Intel Processor.

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

The AMD A4 is an AMD CPU and Intel i7 is an Intel CPU, so they neither use the same socket nor the same chipset. They are both physically and electronically incompatible. So, you may not be able to replace the AMD processor with an Intel processor.

The close to equivalent processor for Intel i7 would be AMD A10 APU because it has a way more powerful integrated graphics chip, better multi-threading support, and the mobile processor provides 4 cores where as Intel mobile processor only has 2 cores.
