Your link shows only Intel >= 8th gen supported.

This link says TPM 2.0 minimum:

And no 1st gen AMD Ryzen supported:

You really need to read before you comment.

Your second link is literally the first thing I replied to in this thread. It's for OEMs making new devices.

And straight from my last comment: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/compatibility/windo...

> *devices that meet the soft floor will receive a notification that upgrade is not advised*.

> *Security: TPM Version >= 1.2 and SecureBootCapable = True*

Are you just being willfully ignorant of the fact that this is clearly the more accurate page since it breaks down the requirements into two sets, or...

Again, MS, the company that introduced special code paths for Sim City to run on their OS aren't about to lock their OS to a few years of PCs.

This is no different than other versions of Windows that had increased RAM requirements but would still boot up as long as a bare minimum was met.

Then follow the "compatible 64-bit processor" link. You will land exactly there.

Alright, you've clearly made your choice.
