CPU on Windows 11 supported Intel processors list, PC Health check says "isn't currently supported"

Question

Intel Xeon Gold 5218 on Windows 11 supported Intel processors list, PC Health check says "isn't currently supported for Windows 11".

How can I use this $250k hyper-converged environment to upgrade my VDI's from Win10 to 11 if I cannot install 11? We support healthcare professionals and adhere to HIPAA laws which state we must run on supported equipment - I cannot use the CPU bypass trick.

Hello,

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

Yes, according to Microsoft Official Documentation,

currently Intel Xeon Gold 5218 is not in Win 11support list.

REF: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/minimum/supported/windows-11-supported-intel-processors

In this scenario, I would suggest contacting with Microsoft Sales and architecture for further consult.
