Both systems are good and both (at Microsoft for the first time in years, Apple does it more often) now and then make a radical cut in the requirements, which is not bad, just annoying. Yes, I don't have a MacBook, but I found out about MacOS 11 and 12 and I like the function and design and that's why I also like the design of Windows 11, as it makes Windows a bit more similar to MacOS in terms of design. Microsoft does not make any functional differences between the processor generations. In addition, Apple is no better than Microsoft in this regard, although it supports devices longer, Apple no longer offers all functions on older devices (for example, a few functions on macOS 12 require the M1 processor from Apple), which is no better. I have exactly the same problem as my laptop also meets all requirements, except for the CPU generation. But that's why I'm sticking to Windows, because it's still indispensable for me. Rufus 3.20 was used to bypass the system requirements, like TPM among others, for Windows 11, a feature that was introduced with the previous 3.18 update.I have an iPhone and think Apple is doing a good job and I would also like to try a MacBook or Linux system. The user even claims that Windows 11 22H2 'runs like magic' on it.

Ironically, however, a 12-year-old Intel CPU, that's not officially supported by Windows 11, has been found to be running the new feature update like a dream.Ī Reddit user with the username 'paul_is_on_reddit' found out their Core i5-580M, a two core four thread CPU from 2010, is working fine on the 2022 update.

The AMD Ryzen 7000 series is on the Windows 11 22H2 supported CPUs list (the system requirements are the same as on Windows 11 21H2) and these kinds of performance bugs, though not unexpected, are certainly undesirable on a supported CPU.

While it is possible that drivers are causing the problem, the new Windows feature update is certainly a suspect regardless. Funnily, the Ryzen 9 7950X, which is the flagship 7000 series SKU, is found to be losing performance when SMT and both its CCDs are enabled. Earlier today, we reported about performance issues that AMD's recently released Ryzen 7000 Zen 4 desktop CPUs are having on Windows 11 22H2 during gaming.
