    Is skylake processors compatible with windows 7


    Hi

    I like Windows7 and I don't like Windows10 environment and I will never use it again. so I want to buy i5-6500 only for Windows7.

    Is it compatible with Windows7 five or six years, also Intel HD Graphics 530.

    Yes.

    It will run W7 past 5 or 6 years.

    But W7 support from Microsoft will end 2020.

    I can`t believe I just said 2020, Amazing
