Windows 11 will begin rolling out to devices later this year, with testers in the Windows Insider program getting the early bits next week. Ahead of the wider rollout, PC makers – Dell, HP, Asus, and Acer – have shared the list of devices supported for Windows 11 upgrade. Most modern devices that shipped with Windows 10 should have no problem handling Windows 11. According to Microsoft officials, you’ll need a processor that’s at least 1 GHz faster with TPM 1.2 or newer support, 64GB of storage and 4GB of RAM. You’ll also need a Microsoft account if you use Windows Home. The big question is what devices will be able to run Windows 11? Thankfully, leading PC makers have shared a list of devices compatible with Windows 11. List of Dell PCs eligible for Windows 11 Every Dell Windows 10 PC sold through the company’s e-commerce platform would be eligible for the new operating system, according to the company. Additionally, older devices will be supported as well. Here’s a list of devices tested by Dell for Windows 11 upgrade:
