Windows 11 on Ryzen 5 2500u

Alright, im owning a laptop with 12gb ram, tpm 2.0, secure boot etc, but the processor is ryzen 5 2500u, and it doesnt let me to install windows 11. i had windows 11 with the windows 10 iso modification, and i had some bugs with it (camera was not working, the system used much ram etc), i downgraded to windows 10, and i want to go back to 11, but not again with the modification. i heard that, if i do a clean installation, it would work. now 2 questions about this :
1. does this really work with unsupported cpus?
2. can i do clean installation with just deleting the C: partition, without deleting the other ones?

and one more question for microsoft : Will you add the Ryzen 5 2500U processor on the supported processor list? i think its a capable processor for windows 11, and many laptops have it, new and old laptops.

 

AMD Ryzen 5 2500U and Windows 11?

Good Day GFNolan.,

My name is Carlo, I am also using Windows 11 pc and community member like you.

The minimum requirements for Windows 11 is at least 8th Gen processors. The processor you are using which is AMD Ryzen 5 2500U is not included in the list of supported processors.

Here's the list of AMD supported processor for Windows 11.

You can stay in Windows 10 it is still supported until year 2025, by that time you will have a new computer already.

However if you want to update your device to Windows 11, you can reach out to your manufacturer and have them check what is the compatible processor for your device for processor replacement to update to Windows 11.

This is a community forum, I don't work for Microsoft , I am a community member like you.

Have a wonderful day ahead and stay safe.

Sincerely,

Carlo T.

 

Problems with cpu Ryzen 5 2500U

Hi TTeix,

I'm Paul and I'm here to help you with your concern.

Unfortunately, Ryzen 5 2500U is not on the list of Windows 11 supported AMD processors.

Also, there has been no new announcement from Microsoft yet if they plan to add more processors to the list.

I can only suggest that you contact HP and ask if you can upgrade your device's current processor.

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted.
