Notes
Microsoft lists Core Ultra (Series 1) on the Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2 processor lists; the 26H2 list has not been published, so the 25H2 status is carried over. Intel's graphics driver also supports Windows 10, while the NPU driver is available for Windows 11 only. Linux runs from kernel 6.7 onward; the NPU uses the intel_vpu driver.
