I found a link to a tool[0] that checks your PC compatibility with Windows 11, but it seems that many many people with powerful devices are getting a "No" answer.
> Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0
Possibly most AMD motherboards don't have TPM integrated? I don't know a lot about TPM though.

EDIT: My motherboard (Asus Prime X470 Pro) lists TPM as a separate module you buy, but the connector is present. $12 module, for example: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1237446-REG/asus_tpm_...
The manual does list an fTPM setting as well, but I have not tested that yet.
Ryzen CPUs do have TPM onboard - at least my Ryzen 3800X does have it. It's disabled by default for some reason.
Funny enough, Apple laptops don't have it so Windows 11 won't be usable in BootCamp on Intel Macs.
Supposedly the fTPM should work with Ryzen CPUs and offer TPM 2.0, but I can't confirm now either.
Similar deal to yours, my Gigabyte x570 board offers TPM cards: https://www.gigabyte.com/us/Motherboard/TPM-Card. I am assuming this is unnecessary tho, but good to know.

no gaming motherboard I've ever had has had a TPM
edit: seems like the intel PTT bios option counts, so maybe not a huge problem (though it's off by default everywhere)
edit: Looks like TPM 2.0 is not a hard requirement, only 1.2. This will likely still result in a lot of users left out of Windows, but the year of the Linux desktop may be delayed again. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/compatibility/windo...
