Notes
Microsoft's Windows 11 24H2 supported-processor list predates the Ryzen 200 Series and does not name it, while the 25H2 list names the Ryzen 200 Series and Ryzen PRO 200 Series; 26H2 keeps the same hardware requirements. AMD also lists Windows 10, RHEL and Ubuntu support, and Fedora and Arch run on Zen 4 without restriction.
