PC Doesn't Meet Windows 11 System Requirement - i7 6700HQ
Hi team, I just want to provide a feedback about the disappointment that my computer cannot be upgraded to Windows 11. I've been a big fan and supporter of Microsoft in the past 14 years ever since ...
Intel 6th Gen CPU is not supported according to the system requirement.
The why I run W11 on my ROG with i7 6th gen? I performed a clean install from USB drive created with Media Creation Tool and the laptop works perfect updates, drivers, etc. It is not the only laptop with the 6th gen i7 were I installed W11, the installation steps were the same as for W10 also used the same license on W11. I performed the installation on 4 laptops with the i7 6th gen CPU and they are working better with W11 than with W10. Microsoft released the list with the supported CPU but they doesn't tell you can't try to install W11 on unsupported CPU.
