windows 11 support on qnap nas?

So the part where they said Ryzen 3,5,7 (1xxx, 2xxx) which covers something like say a TS-877, and intel i3, i5 and i7 7thgen or before; won't be able to run a windows 11 simply because the cpu is not supported for windows 11.

Found that interesting. did anybody else notice this? not sure what other models are affected because i didn't look further than that, but something to be mindful of :?

I suspect that when you do try to create windows vm using virtualstation, you will probly be limited to windows 10 or below for my case because my qnap nas model cpu does not support windows 11 :(

Or is it possible that you can spoof your hardware to trick windows 11 that you can run it just fine? :'



here is another article, what is tpm and what the heck it's for

it's a good thing that i delayed my pc upgrade. i was very tempted to get a ryzen 1xxx or 2xxx, then this year this news came out. dodged a bullet there. but there are many people using these cpus. They are good systems for a good value i might add (i'm talking about the ryzen pc rigs of course. Sorry intel :roll: ), but now they find out this.....

Windows just giving people more reasons to move to linux desktops :(

windows 11 is pre release anyways..I have the dev preview on one of my home systems ... it works ok .. but the vusuals are different (I moved the start bar to the left again)

pretty sure at one point windows11 will have tpm virtual support from most hypervisors
