Additionally, you can use official PC Health Check app to determine Windows 11 eligibility. If you get This PC meets Windows 11 requirements with PC Health Check app, then you can try manual upgrade:

Thanks@Kapil Arya,
I have an opportunity to pick up this system but don't think it's worth it if it's not upgradeable. I'll have to get more info about the processor.
Hi you do not have to worry about it - download from the official website the application that will scan this computer and you will receive information whether the TPM motherboard and the processor are compatible.
Best regards
