I was able to upgrade to Windows 11 on my dinosaur desktop (at least 10 years old) without any issues. Been able to keep it updated, too, for at least the last 2 years.

There are ways to bypass certain hardware restrictions, and I'm sure plenty of how-tos are still available.

No need to sweat it.
