Advice on purchase of a new Intel CPU for my HP ENVY Desktop - 750-114 that is windows 11 compatible? That's the only thing that did not pass the Windows 11 test.

OS:                  Windows 10 Pro V: 19043.1237

CPU:                Intel Core i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70

Sys:                 Mem 12GB

Sys board:     2B47 1.04

Sys BIOS:        A0.12

Forgot where I saw once where it lists CPU's for the 2B47 board.

I believe Windows 11 requires Intel CPU from Gen 8 up therefore you can use your machine few more years with Windows 10. Microsoft may change their mind to let Windows 11 to run on older generations.

That's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!  Well, I haven't built a PC in a while. Time to start shopping for a combo motherboard.
