Thus, Windows 11 is the first consumer version of Windows not to support 32-bit processors (although Windows Server 2008 R2 is the first version of Windows Server to not support them). [ 152 ] [ 153 ] The minimum RAM and storage requirements were also increased; Windows 11 now requires at least 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. [ 154 ]
Skylake is the last Intel platform on which Windows earlier than Windows 10 are officially supported by Microsoft, [11] although enthusiast-created modifications are available that disabled the Windows Update check and allowed Windows 8.1 and earlier to continue to receive Windows Updates on this and later platforms. [12] [13] [14]
Support in Linux is merged in kernel 5.18 [38] but this alone is not sufficient until the kernel gets hints from userspace in order to schedule tasks to run on certain types of cores. Windows 10 version 21H2 and later Windows 10 has support for Intel Thread Director, but such support is limited. [39]
Touch Keyboard: Windows 11 introduces thirteen new themes to customize the touch keyboard, including 3 hardware-matching themes that match the Surface keyboard colors. It also adds a new theme engine that allows the user to create a custom theme using background images. In addition, Windows 11 adds the ability to resize the touch keyboard.
The Core i9 K/KF processors support a 1:1 ratio of DRAM to memory controller by specification at DDR4-3200, whereas the Core i9 non K/KF and all other CPUs listed below support a 2:1 ratio of DRAM to memory controller at DDR4-3200 and a 1:1 ratio at DDR4-2933. [29] All CPUs support up to 128 GB of RAM in dual channel mode [30]
Support for Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be), which enhances data transfer speeds, along with new user interface elements to refresh the list of Wi-Fi networks and indicate scan progress. [14] Support for Bluetooth LE audio. [14] Windows 11 Search adds the ability to search for documents and photos using descriptive phrases instead of just file names. [13]
AMD64 (also variously referred to by AMD in their literature and documentation as “AMD 64-bit Technology” and “AMD x86-64 Architecture”) was created as an alternative to the radically different IA-64 architecture designed by Intel and Hewlett-Packard, which was backward-incompatible with IA-32, the 32-bit version of the x86 architecture.
EPT support is found in Intel's Core i3, Core i5, Core i7 and Core i9 CPUs, among others. [6] It is also found in some newer VIA CPUs. EPT is required in order to launch a logical processor directly in real mode , a feature called "unrestricted guest" in Intel's jargon, and introduced in the Westmere microarchitecture .
