    Windows 11 processor not supported


    My processor i7- 5930K is socket 2011-v3. It is a bit of an enthusiast platform and at the time of build more expensive. PC water-cooled runs a modest overclock, I actually forget the figure, it is about 4.5 GHz, 6 cores, 12 threads. That is considerably above what minimum specs for support of Windows 11. Yet I am told by the P PC Health Check app that it is not supported. I want to know why?

    My processor is on the list Denis mentions

    Yes, the i7-7500U is on the list of supported processors for Windows 10 20H2

    What you are missing is that the Windows PC Health check is checking against the list of supported processors for Windows 11 - and yours is not on that list.

    Introducing Windows 11

    I thought I would share this with the Forum. Here is a list of Supported Intel Processors . . .

    > Windows 11 Supported Intel Processors

    There are a few other lists on the Net but this seemed to be the most comprehensive.
