Note | If you have any questions related to the operating system support for your OEM (original equipment manufacturer) PC or hardware, contact the OEM for support. If you are building your own system, contact the vendor of the operating system for support. |
Follow the steps below to determine if your processor supports Windows® 10 using the code name listed in the table below.
- Identify the processor: Press the Windows key on your keyboard and start typing "System", choose System Information, which will show Processor information with the name and the number.
- Go to the product specification site and type the processor number in the search box. Once you see the processor in the drop-down, click it.
- On the product specification page under Essentials, the second line lists the code name.
- Locate the code name in the table below, and determine if your processor supports Windows® 10.
For example: The processor is i7-10700K.
- Enter the processor number in the search box on the Product specification site.
- The Code Name is located under Essentials.
- Locate the code name in the table below, and determine if your processor supports Windows® 10. In the example given, the i7-10700K has the code name Comet Lake. In the table below, we can see that the processor supports Windows® 10, 64-bit.
