    That’s a quite normal PC right? Not that I want it though lol good heavens.

    When I think about it my daily only have 4 cores, oh no cant use it (I’m on Linux too, so sad ).

    Or am I missing something with “copilot pc”, does it have to have som special hardware? Asking out of morbid curiosity.

      Yeah, it has to have certain specific types of CPU. They’re making this a requirement for all Windows 11 machines if you want to keep receiving security updates. It’s going to create a mountain of e-waste.

      They’re not amazing specs. All but the most budget of PCs sold in 2024 would have those specs.

      It’s notable as a required minimum though. There’s an implication (not necessarily true) that at some times this feature may require a significant portion of those resources.

      Like if your browser was burning away on 8 cores using 16g of RAM you’d notice.
