Unfortunately for Mac users, the situation regarding official support for Windows 11 through Boot Camp remains unclear. This means that anyone can try to install Microsoft’s new operating system on any PC, but it is not guaranteed that it will work. At first, the company said that only processors introduced after 2017 could run Windows 11, which seems to have upset multiple users who still have PCs with older but still quite capable processors.Īlthough Windows 11 will still be released with the same recommendations, it will not require a compatible CPU for the upgrade. The change that Microsoft announced today is related to CPU requirements. The computer also needs a DirectX 12 compatible graphics card and support for TPM 2.0. First, it requires a machine with 64-bit 1GHz or faster processor, at least 4GB RAM, and 64GB of storage.
However, the company today confirmed some changes in CPU requirements for Windows 11, but Mac support remains uncertain.Īs we reported in June, Microsoft has set three main requirements for a PC to run Windows 11. Microsoft announced Windows 11 earlier this year, which has a number of restrictions when it comes to running on some older hardware - or even Macs.
