The Windows 11 In-place upgrade dashboard (and underlying analyses) only check processor speed and core count. I had 162 computers that passed in that dashboard that have processors from generations not supported by Windows. Example: Intel® Core™ i7-6500U CPU @ 2.50GHz will pass both speed and core count, but is a Generation 6 processor that is unsupported for W11.

I have noticed this same issue as well. I know there are also other forum debating whether they are supported but we it’s stated pretty clear that the older generation processors aren’t supported.
