Ciao a tutti! Il mio pc monta un processore intel core i7-6700 e Microsoft non aggiorna il sistema a Windows 11 perché "non supportato".

Poiché a breve termine windows 10 non riceverà più aggiornamenti, mi si pone il problema di aggiornare l'hardware.

E' possibile sostituire il processore con altro modello , compatibile Windows 11? Quale?

Scheda

ASUS Desktop pc M32 cd - a - f - k20cd - k31cd

Grazie anticipate a tutti!

You must consult with asus regarding processors that are compatible with THEIR motherboard bios.  And, you would need an 8th gen or later processor.

As Al indicated, an 8th gen or later processor is necessary for Windows 11 support. The problem is that 8th gen processors require a 300 Series chipset. Your motherboard, in supporting the Core i7-6700 and similar processors, has only a 100 or 200 Series chipset. Bottom line, to replace this 6th gen processor with an 8th gen processor, you would need to upgrade your motherboard as well as your processor. Worse, in a custom SFF chassis like that used in your system, you may not be able to install a generic uATX/ITX motherboard, necessitating a chassis (and power supply) replacement as well.

Hope this helps - and sorry the answer wasn't better,
