[SOLVED] "Intel Pentium G3420" Windows 10 Support

[alirwez]

Does this CPU (Intel Pentium G3420 Haswell):

support Windows 10?

I checked the official Intel page for codenames that support Windows 10 but I didn't get convinced cause I didn't see the exact model name
So I came here to ask you guys about it since this is a 2-core cpu.

Edit: If it does actually does support Win10, which architecture does it do? (32bit or 64bit)

 

[Mr.Spock]

64-bit support has been there since the Pentium 4 Prescott. you can run Win10 even on SandyBridge so Haswell is not an issue

Thanks a lot, but, how will the performance be if I want to install, let's say Win10-64bit on it?

The same as windows 7 or 8 would be on that CPU, not great but usable.

depends on what you use it for - browser and general desktop use will be fine. graphics and multi-tasking will be less so, but then you can upgrade the CPU to an i5 or i7
