The Redmond tech giant is doing this to bring everyone into the Windows 10 umbrella.
Windows 7 was designed nearly 10 years ago before any x86/x64 SOCs existed.
But where do these concerns arise from?
It is because novel technologies, such as Skylake, set off from the behavior of older CPUs.
Experts in the field confirm that merging the last-gen CPUs with dated software is both resource-consuming and complex.
Terry Myerson, executive VP of Windows and Devices Group, spoke to Ars Technica about the changes.
The primary reason for the new update schedule is the conservation of quality states Myerson.
Both CPUs will feature Windows 10 compatibility out of the box.
Microsofts statement makes no mention of its server operating systems.
This could lead to some displeasure in the enterprise user base.
It should be noted that the server customized OS did not launch yet.
Only time will tell.
