The reason why not all CPU's will work Max is because it's in a Virtual Environment right now. That wont be the case when it is released in it's full version in late 2022.

Sorry to say that the original post is correct some older CPU's will not meet requirements for windows 11. its was the same with windows 10. I heard that if its over 5 years i might not work but it probably will as long as it is multi-core and at least 1GHz and 2gig of ram

I have a Ryzen1800x about 2 years old and it will not run Win. 11 I think you are going to have the latest and greatest to run it. I think they might loose out in sales of Win 11.

hey max, that cpu will work with windows 11 this is the official min spec

Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with 2 or more cores on a compatible 64-bit processor or System on a Chip (SoC)
RAM: 4 gigabyte (GB)
Storage: 64 GB or larger storage device
System firmware: Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0
Graphics card: Compatible with DirectX 12 or later with WDDM 2.0 driver
S mode is only supported on Home edition of Windows 11. If you are running a different edition of Windows in S mode, you will need to first switch out of S mode prior to upgrading.

if you used the PC health Check app to see if you machine could run it, there has been fault with that program it has been removed by Microsoft until it is fixed

but there is no way they would not support ryzen processors

I guess that means a whole brand new CPU, I'll have to wait. This cpu I have is still
good.. BTW what is a TPM?

tpm is a trusted platform module and some motherboard manufactures have made them and they just plug into your motherboard and there you go you then have tpm. but i would wait before going and getting one for 2 reasons. 1st let other people make sure they work dont waste your money and 2nd since win11 was announce the the demand and prices have shot up.

Max yours wont because you aren't running the full version. Pretty simple. As far as full release, I think you're going to be surprised as to how many CPU's will run this. It's already been tested and proven to do so.

Intel supported CPUs
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/minimum/supported/windows-11-supported-intel-processors

but i have heard that windows 11 might work with other CPUs but some feature might be unavailable.
