Windows 12 is expected to have double core memory requirements

Windows 12 is expected to have double core memory requirements

When Microsoft unveiled Windows 11 in the fall of 2021, product manager Panos Panay declared it “the first chapter of a new era for Windows.” It’s rumored that new means, among other things, that the company is back to releasing a new operating system about every three years, with Windows 12 possibly being next sometime in the second half of 2024.

Among the discussed news that Windows 11 brought with it were the stringent hardware requirements for the operating system, with a relatively modern processor, Trusted Platform Module 2.0 (TPM 2.0), and Secure Boot functionality being the official minimum for installation. for Windows 12 The requirements are expected to be a little more difficultwith requirements for more core memory and a new limit that allows processors to play.

For the former, the rumors are relatively concrete and the current 4GB limit is said to have been increased to 8GB. In terms of security requirements and potential processor requirements, it’s considerably more ambiguous. Details of the next version of Windows are still very sparse, though Microsoft is expected to bake AI and machine learning to a greater degree. More AI components can, in turn, increase the demand for dedicated AI hardware, which is why increasing processor requirements isn’t outright impossible.

However, it should be noted that Microsoft is investing heavily in cloud infrastructure. Another possible scenario is that the integration of AI into a future operating system is enabled by computing power from Microsoft’s data center. In addition, security requirements are set to remain at TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot, although there is no guarantee that processor requirements will not change. What Microsoft cooks remains to be seen, but until then at least two major updates are expected for Windows 11, under the names “Moment 3” and “Moment 4”.
