    Windows 11 processor compatibility


    My computer has an Intel Core i7-7700K CPU @ 4.20GHz processor which will not currently support Windows 11. Will this processor ever be supported for Windows 11?

    :)

    You can drop a feedback to Microsoft about this, using Feedback hub app.

    Regards.

    You are looking at a list of processors compatible with 21H1 Windows 10, not Windows 11.
