Virtual Background Support for i7 2nd Generation

Is Zoom planning to expand its minimum requirement for using Virtual Background without Green Screen in next version? (My processor is i7 gen2, currently zoom support i7 gen 3, which is very close :))

It seems, in every update Zoom included more and more old-gen of processors that can support VB (with Image or Video) without Green Screen. If so, I will very grateful for it, hence Google Meet already supports any processor to change the virtual background albeit the quality is different.

    Hi @taufikbersahaja 

    I am not aware of any changes to the Virtual Background system requirements, but if/when they happen, we will update the support article as needed.

    Thank you very much, is there any Zoom official/team in this Zoom Community Forum? Maybe what I said on this topic is a kind of suggestion for them.

     

    Or maybe is there any technical solution that moves the VB processing from the CPU to GPU instead. Because  I am sure that many people have a PC that has an old Processor but decent Graphic Card, just info, my i7 gen2 2600 is supported with RTX1060 (6GB).
