    Win11 Pro approved processor list


    My Computer is less than 1 year old with an AMD processor that meets the performance requirements for Win 11 but my processor AMD Pro A10-9700 R7 is not listed in your approved list. When will Microsoft include my processor on the approved list for upgrading from Win 10 Pro to Win 11 Pro ?

    :)

    Processor nogo Win11 upgrade - Upgrade processor?

    Windows 10 Pro 21H1

    I ran the MS Win11 hardware suitability tool. And my trusty, 3 year old Lenovo P50 failed--reason: processor.

    The machine's processor is: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700HQ CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.59 GHz

    Just curious... is it reasonable that a newer processor might be plug compatible with the motherboard and with Win11?

    Processor nogo Win11 upgrade - Upgrade processor?

    Fairly tough language.

    You suggest replacing a surface mounted CPU? With one that's at least 8th generation?

    Unlikely.

    PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??
