Microsoft released the Moment 3 feature update for Windows 11 version 22H2 in late May with build KB5026446 (Build 22621.1778).
At the same time, it announced that eligible systems can update to the Moment 3 version. Following the announcement, Microsoft quietly updated the list of newly supported processors from Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm. The list was last updated in October last year when the company released the 22H2 feature update.
There are separate lists for both Windows 11 21H2 and 22H2, although the Windows 11 system requirements have not (significantly) changed since the initial release of version 21H2. Therefore, if users are hoping that their currently unsupported hardware might suddenly appear in the new additional support list, that simply will not happen. Nevertheless, many people are still running unsupported systems on Windows 11 22H2, just as they were doing with version 21H2.
Previously, Microsoft had mistakenly provided Windows 11 feature updates to unsupported systems. The most recent incident occurred earlier this year in February, and Microsoft has acknowledged this error. A similar situation also occurred in June last year.
For Intel, the list of Windows 11 supported CPUs includes a very notable name: the flagship Core i9-13900KS 6GHz SKU, along with other Intel Raptor Lake mobile CPU models such as i5-1334U, 1335U, 1335UE, and 13500HS. The full list is available on Microsoft’s website.
The AMD side is certainly where things get much more interesting. Chips with on-board 3D V-cache have been added to the support list, including the AM4-based 5800X3D as well as the newer AM5-based 7950X3D, 7900X3D, and 7800X3D. Other AM4 SKUs include Ryzen 3 4100, Ryzen 5 4500, 5500, and 5600. Meanwhile, for AM5, we have non-X Ryzen variants like Ryzen 7 7700 and Ryzen 5 7600. Some older generation SKUs have also been Windows 11 version 22H2 supported Intel processors.
Regarding mobile processors, we have the Ryzen 5 5625U and even the 5625C (part of the Chromebook version), Ryzen 3 5425U, etc. Many AMD 7000U series processors have also been added to the Windows support list. Two of these are the 7530U, 7440U, etc. (Do not confuse these with AMD’s Mendocino, which has Zen 2 and RDNA 2 integrated graphics). Overall, this is a rather confusing naming convention from AMD.
