On the other hand, Secure Boot is a module that ensures that the device boots only using the software that the manufacturer trusts. TPM is a piece of hardware, usually (but not always) integrated into the motherboard, which offers a secure environment to store and protect the encryption keys when encrypting the hard drive using features like BitLocker. According to Microsoft, TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot are needed to provide a better security environment and prevent (or at least minimize) sophisticated attacks, common malware, ransomware, and other threats. On Windows 11, one of the most significant changes is the requirement for Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0 and Secure Boot.
Look for AdvancedAMD fTPM Configuration in the Advanced tab, and switch the TPM Device Selection setting to Firmware TPM.If you plan to upgrade to Windows 11, you must first check and enable TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot in the BIOS (UEFI) of your computer’s motherboard (from Asus, Dell, MSI, GigaByte, etc.) as part of the preparation. To activate it on Intel motherboards, head to the BIOS, go to the Advanced tab, select AdvancedPCH-FW Configuration and change PTT to Enable.ĪMD motherboards follow the same process but with different names. Asus AsusĪsus includes support for firmware TPM on the most recent AMD chipsets and Intel chipsets dating back several years. Make sure to consult the list of supported AMD processors and supported Intel processors before upgrading.Īfter enabling TPM and running the PC Health Check app to make sure your machine is up to snuff, you can download Windows 11 and check out the new operating system.
CPU support only goes back to AMD Ryzen 2000 and Intel 8th-gen.
Possible Windows 12 hardware system requirements revealedĪlthough all of the chipsets below support firmware TPM, that doesn’t mean they all support Windows 11. Windows 11 is ditching this almost 20-year-old classic feature
