Windows 11 and my processor question

Please I would like to know is my processor supports Windows 11?

No, it isn´t. The "4" in "4590" means 4th generation. You need at least 8th gen. for compatibility.

You can run the app WhyNotWin11 to check compatibility.

oh ok thank you

Maybe microsoft will allow seventh generation processors (7XXX), and maybe by the time of the release of windows 11, towards the end of the year, beginning of next year, the older processors will be compatible. Do not buy anything before its official release.

maybe you correct itsme1

Maybe good news maybe I can clean install Window 11 in the future without recommended specs - Microsoft now lets you install Windows 11 on any Windows 10-compatible PC Winaero link

MS did allow only a few handful of 7th gen Intel CPUs for Win11 but other 7th gen Intel and AMD Zen 1 CPUs remain incompatible or unsupported

We did identify a set of PC models that meet the principles while running on Intel 7^th Gen processors that we did not originally include in our minimum system requirements. Based on those findings, we have expanded the list of compatible 64-bit processors to include the following:

• Intel® Core™ X-series, Xeon® W-series
• Intel® Core™ 7820HQ (only select devices that shipped with modern drivers based on Declarative, Componentized, Hardware Support Apps (DCH) design principles, including Surface Studio 2)

After carefully analyzing the first generation of AMD Zen processors in partnership with AMD, together we concluded that there are no additions to the supported CPU list.

while you could clean install Win11 on a PC that does not have the recommended specs, you may not be able to receive updates for Win11

Microsoft leaves a loophole for those wanting to run Windows 11 on 'unsupported' hardware | ZDNet

An "unsupported state," in this case, means your PC won't be entitled to receive updates via Windows Update. These may (or may not) include security and driver updates. As a result, your PC may encounter compatibility issues and become unusable, may experience issues that Microsoft support won't be able to help resolve, and may not be covered by warranty.

so install Win11 at your own risk

I have I7 7700K and have problem one game, bug FPS OMG

I don't know the fix, others games have +144fps
