Question

Why doesn't my Athlon 3000G apply to Windows 11 via Health Check? According to Microsoft, this processor is compatible.

Answer 1

Windows 11 Needs at least Picasso microarchitectures succeeding Raven Ridge

for box version of athlon 3000g
YD3000C6FBBOX the one (I have is Raven Ridge)
YD3000C6FHBOX is the Picasso

for Tray Version
YD3000C6M2OFB = Raven Ridge
YD3000C6M2OFH = Picasso

(FB) = Raven Ridge
(FH) = Picasso

Answer 2

I will find out tomorrow if that will solve it. I purchased the Picasso version and I will retry installing Windows 11 again....if this solves the case I wish Microsoft would have indicated that specific detail on their compatibility list. It would have made things alot easier.

Answer 3

I also have the same problem.
Not sure if this is the reason behind it or not but read on.
Windows 11 supported AMD processors shows that this AMD Athlon 3000G with Radeon Vega Graphics 3.50 GHz is compatible BUT there are two core versions of this particular CPU.
The Raven Ridge (‎YD3000C6FHBOX) and the Picasso (YD3000C6M2OFH).
Windows 11 will not recognize the Raven Ridge version only the Picasso version.
And the Picasso versions are hard to find.

Answer 4

I have the same CPU and I get the same message when using the PC Health Check App :(

I bought this processor last month expecting it to be supported, since it is listed on the Windows 11 Compatibility list, as well as AMD's website (lists "Windows 11 - 64-Bit Edition" under OS Support)... so very disappointing that its not compatible.

Answer 5

You need to wait and see if Windows 11 upgrade is automatically offered to you.
