Microsoft has made changes to the list of computer chips that can run Windows 11. They added a bunch of new Intel and AMD processors to the list. Last month, they released an update called Moment 3 for Windows 11 version 22H2. People with eligible computers were able to install this update. This is because Microsoft updated the supported CPU list for Windows 11.

Now, the company quietly updated the list of supported chips from Qualcomm, AMD, and Intel. The updated list shows that Windows 11 can now work with the new Intel and AMD processors. However, it’s important to note that the Moment 3 update doesn’t magically make incompatible computers able to run Windows 11.

Microsoft updates the list of compatible Windows 11 processors.


NeowinFeed on Twitter reported that Microsoft has added Windows 11 support to some 7th gen Intel processors.
