Windows 10 runs on anything that will emit a clock signal, and Windows 11 can be forced onto hardware it doesn't officially like.
I don't like Windows 7 support being dropped either, in large part because the dropping comes due to CEF used by Steam, but it's not like the hardware concerned becomes useless with no way out.
- Aerroon 3y ago>Windows 10 runs on anything that will emit a clock signal It runs extremely poorly on low power hardware. Poorly enough that I consider it unusable. Windows 7 ran fine on the same hardware previously.
- Dalewyn 3y agoSeeing as we're talking about games, low power hardware isn't necessarily relevant.
- mathgeek 3y agoWe’re talking about games still being playable years later though, so there is an argument that older hardware is relevant (relatively speaking, anyway). Games built for Windows 95 not being playable because your hardware can’t efficiently run Windows 10 is a relevant discussion.
