OEMs may use the following CPUs for new Windows 11 devices. Updates to the processor lists will occur at each subsequent general availability of Windows. It is expected that the processor list will not reflect the most current offerings from processor manufacturers between updates. Subsequently released and future generations of processors which meet the same principles will be considered as supported, even if not explicitly listed.
These processors meet the design principles around security, reliability, and the minimum system requirements for Windows 11. The processors listed represent the processor models which meet the minimum floor for the supported processor generations and up through the latest processors at the time of publication.
