ASUS Rolls Out BIOS Updates for Windows 11 Support on Kaby Lake, Skylake

[docnorth]

It is in English. What don't you understand?
It is about a random Lake (because of the codenames), random Z number from the chipsets' naming scheme and the tremendously high power consumption and heat which will be removed by liquid nitrogen coolers.
What don't you understand?

It’s about Skylake and Kaby lake which were way more efficient than the competition. l have a prebuilt PC at the office with i7 6700, the stock cooler is more than enough despite the poor airflow and the CPU is restricted to 65w but still competitive. On the other hand cooling the office’s 3700x (works as a shared mini server) was much more challenging, even without PBO. Of course its multi-core performance is in a different league.

My Dell Latitude E7470 (i5-6300U, 8GB RAM & 256GB NVME SSD) got a firmware upgrade for the built-in TPM module for 2.0.

I was running Windows 11 Pro Dev version and when I wanted to upgrade to the newest Windows 11 Pro Beta using Windows it said my CPU wasn't supported but when I do a USB boot and a clean install no issues at all

According to latest article on TPU, your machine will be treated as 'unsupported'. Chances are it won't be getting updates.

Yeah this is what I am talking about, Skylake CPU's are still running great as fuck and for my usage which is like browsing and watching online tv connected to my OLED TV it does wonders I also use it to do support on from time to time I don't see the need or have the cash to throw out for a 8, 9, 10 or 11th gen or AMD laptop.

So if Microsoft is not gonna change their way they will lose a lot of goverment and companies that cannot just upgrade.

This means there is no perceivable performance difference.

No, it means I used it for 5 minutes before disliking the taskbar and could not judge.

You seem to like putting your own facts in aparrent blanks. Don't do that, please.

I like Asus's optimism, windows 11 on Skylake.

Yes and no, Skylake was a great CPU which was still refined until like 10th gen if I remember correctly.

Since the 100 and 200 series chipset from Intel supports 7th gen CPU's they have to make bios' for both series of chipsets so why not include the 6th gen.

Sofar the windows 11 CPU support list is starting with 8th gen, we'll have to wait and see if that will change or not in the near future.

Hi,
Think even broardwell-e and haswell-e has tpm 1.2 same as x299 chips have and were added.
