Microsoft updates the list of support processors for Windows 11. In the previous change, which happen around in May, the company adds many new Intel chips to the list, including the new Raptor Lake (13th Gen) processors.
But, in a new list publish on 25th July, 2023 Microsoft remove support for many Intel CPUs from the official Windows 11 22H2 support that were previously eligible for the update.
It is important to know that each version of Windows 11 (21H2 and 22H2) has its own specific list of support processors.
The recent change log from Microsoft applies to the Windows 11 22H2 version.

The above list of unsupport Xeon CPUs includes all of Intel’s Coffee Lake (8th Gen) Core processors.
This means that Microsoft has completely remove support for these server-based CPUs, even though their desktop counterparts are still support.
So, almost all Xeon CPUs release after the Coffee Lake generation are still eligible for an upgrade.
The new list of support processors includes a few new Ryzen models, even the unannounce Ryzen 3 5380.
This processor is rumore to be one of the SKUs from AMD’s “Lucienne” lineup, which is based on the Zen 2 CPU and Vega GPU microarchitectures.
