OS support

Windows: Windows 10

Notes: Shipped with Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 in budget laptops. It is not on Microsoft's Windows 11 supported-processor lists for 24H2 or 25H2, and 26H2 keeps the same requirements, so Windows 10 is the newest supported Windows release. It lacks AVX and therefore does not meet the x86-64-v3 level, but mainstream Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, Fedora and Arch still target baseline x86-64 and run on it.
