hi guys i have a asus h170 pro mother board with a i5 6600k in it windows says that is not good enough for w11 can anyone advise a cpu that would work with w11 on this board without breaking the bank as i have recently retired and am not flush with money , or am i flogging a dead horse and have to update my whole system .
 
Not sure tbh, it wouldn't surprise me.

We are holding off installing Windows 11 by default until they sort the performance and other issues out.
It's like every Microsoft OS release, it takes them a good month or two of patching to get it working right lol.
 
so at the moment my m/board and cpu are at a crossroads ,stick with what i have and w10 or upgrade system m/board,cpu . my system is now 6 years old ,the time passes quickly .
 
What do you want Win 11 for? Are you a gamer? If you just want the looks I expect there will be updates for that. it's more likely your CPU will bottleneck you before Windows 10 is a problem.

Stick with 10 the only reason I updated my 6600 was first person shooters and playing with friends

Everything else work fine
