The i7-7700K meet the minimun requierments to run Win11. But its not suported, Why?
We are supporting you for 5 more years with Windows 10. Just you won’t get some of the new awesome features of Windows 11. Apple does similar stuff for example I have an old 2nd generation Apple Ipad Mini and they don’t get IpadOs 14.8 more like 12.8, etc.. there is extra coding to be done and testing and we do not want to be on the hook for the rest of our life for this. You will have 8 years on your pc then after you can take your chances if it still works or is still secure. We are a business we aren’t a Freebsd foundation/linux charity and if you use those your system will be far more unstable with the simplest things not working and getting your sound card or whatever a headache and the support lacking, the software not available and they will tell you the only thing you can do is recompile the kernel yourself and it will be a whole headache so I don’t see why you come on hard against us the sharks of a business. Rest assured you are good with Windows 10 until 2025… but there will be a push towards getting a new computer.. rather than spend 1000s for an m1 you could spend 100s for an i3 or i5 11th generation… and a motherboard and i9 upgrade to 11 generation will cost you no more than 700$…
- Jeronimo2440Oct 20, 2021Iron ContributorIf my math it's not wrong... Microsoft will support Win10 until 2025 and we are alredy on october of 2021. So far is 4 years. And I would say 3 year not 4.
