The Win11 is not going to be like Win10 upgrade as the Win10 upgrade did not “force” people to buy new hardware but allow people using much older hardware to use windows 10… this thus generated lots of income loss for other manufacturers.<\/p>\n

That information would only be available from the support page for your motherboard, you will need to provide them with the exact Model No. of your motherboard, and whether Windows 10 is installed in Legacy BIOS Mode or UEFI Mode and whether Secure Boot is turned on.<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2022-07-11T16:31:24.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/windows-11-compatibility-contradictions/930583/5","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"jineshsethia","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/jineshsethia"}}]}}
Evening folks,
More often then not I find myself asking this question: “What is/was Microsoft thinking?” With Win11 they really should be asking themselves the same question, but my concern is this:
I just added a TPM module to my motherboard which did resolve the corresponding notation inn the PC health checker, but the issue which remain outstanding is that of my processor: Intel Core i7 6700K, the health checker says this is an incompatible processor, but I came across this list:
which lists my processor as being supported as of May 18, 2022
Should I be expecting an update which will bring my PC is compliance or is something be misrepresented in the health checker?
Thanks.

Your link is compatibility for Windows 10 21H2, Windows 11 is a different list and doesn’t include any 6700: Windows processor requirements Windows 11 supported Intel processors | Microsoft Learn
