Which Generation of this Desktop supports upgrade to Windows 11?

[Datsys]

I am looking at using these to "modernize" a small office to use Windows 11 and M.2 SSDs. Can the G4 or G5 do?

The HP Prodesk 600 G4/G5 and Elitedesk 800 G4/G5 desktop PC's meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements.

They both have support for M.2 NVMe SSD's.

On the G4's, make sure you buy one with an Intel 8th generation core processor, because some of them come configured with Intel 7th gens.

The G5's are fully supported.

Thanks for the information. It is being suggested that I go with purchasing barebones units (no dives, CPU or RAM) and add what is required. The price difference seems to make for good business or at least worth consideration.

I already know both of these use DDR4 and support the drives I want to use. Where can I find the detail of exactly which i5 processor I need for them?

You're very welcome.

Here's the link to the HP Quickspecs for the Elitedesk 800 G4 and G5 PC's which have the list of processors HP offered in them.
