Windows 10: Windows 11 Upgrade "Intel Core I5-6200U" not compatible..!?

Windows PC Health Check App reports that I cant get Windows 11 upgrade coz of incompatible Processor. But it itself detects my processor correctly, being, Intel Core I5 - 6200U. This processor is very much compatible as per the Hardware Requirements displayed by Microsoft. Also I have manually checked all the upgrade requirements and my PC is perfectly eligible. So please solve this issue or help me get Windows 11.

Intel Gives Core i3 and Core i5 Dual-Core Processors K0 Stepping Update

Intel is giving some existing 32 nm "Clarkdale" based Core i3 and Core i5 processors an update. The processors will transition to the new K0 stepping from the existing C2 stepping. The parts that will be made on the K0 silicon are Core i3 models 530 (new sSPEC: SLBX7), 540 (new sSPEC: SLBTD) and Core i5 models 650 (new sSPEC: SLBTJ), 660/661 (SLBTK/SLBTB), 670 (SLBTL). Newer and upcoming models such as the i3-550, i3-560, i5-665K, and i5-680 are already being built on the K0 stepping die. Motherboards will require a BIOS update to support the new K0 stepping processors.

The K0 stepping change includes the following highlights:

• New S-spec and MM numbers for the converting products
• Extended CPUID will change from 0x00020652 to 0x00020655
• Host RevID will change from 0x12 to 0x18
• K0 stepping package is pin compatible with C2 stepping package
• Adds Processor Context ID (PCID) support

The revised older SKUs that are built on K0 stepping will be market-available by October 16.

 

Intel - Core i7-9700K motherboard compatibility

well to be honest, if you dont want to spend alot of money or do anything fancy, why spend so much on a cpu when you could buy an i5 Intel BX80684I58600K 8th Gen Core i5-8600K Processor: Amazon.co.uk: Computers Accessories and motherboard for the same cost as the i7 CPU?

however, this is your choice and I understand sometimes need overtakes requirement *Smile

When I click on the compatible motherboards and select at random Asus ROG Strix Z370-I Gaming there are no warnings as you state in the original Post!

I would suggest pick a motherboard and go to the vendor website direct and check CPU compatibility
You will also get the correct memory specifications from here.
Also, buy on amazon and you can return !!!

Good luck with the build
