I think it's very telling so many people upgrading now are coming from Haswell chips, they are a legendary chip generation, and arguably the last time anyone needed a CPU upgrade short of operating system support or warranty concerns.
- snvzz 10mo ago>short of operating system support Notably, Haswell makes the cut for Win11. Not that I'd use that over Linux. (I run Arch, btw)
- ocdtrekkie 10mo agoOfficially it most certainly does not. Haswell chips are fourth-generation processors, Windows 11 requires eighth-generation processors. Though of course, if you bypass the checks it will install anyways.
- snvzz 10mo agoI got confused. It makes the cut for something else, x86-64v3. Which I thought was the baseline for Win11. Apparently, not the case.
