    Question Can I install a TPM chip on Asus B85M-E?

    Here is my update. Installed TPM 1.2 and Asus BIOS recognized it. Then I read that 1Password requires TPM 2.0. I got the TPM 2.0 chip and installed it. Confirmed that it shows up in PC Health Check when I ran Windows 11 compatibility check. The Intel i-7-4790 is not compatible with...

    Question Can I install a TPM chip on Asus B85M-E?

    Thanks for the info. Do you know if TPM 1.2 is supported? And if not, why is there a TPM slot in mobo at all?

    Question Can I install a TPM chip on Asus B85M-E?

    I'm going to try mine today. I just got the TPM 1.2 and TPM 2.0 chips in the mail. One came from California and the other from China. Although I'm sure they both came from China originally. I'll post about how it goes.

    Question Can I install a TPM chip on Asus B85M-E?

    No, I don't really care about Win 11. I was hoping to use TPM to unlock 1Password with Windows Hello instead of using a password. CPU is Intel i7-4790 @ 3.60 GHz

    Question Can I install a TPM chip on Asus B85M-E?

    I see that there is a slot for a 20-1 pin TPM. Will it work buying a TPM 2.0 20-1 pin and plugging it in? I see it looks like there are a lot of "home made" or sketchy looking TPM chips to buy online. Can a TPM be compromised before I get it? TIA.

    Does the MSI 970A-G46 Motherboard support a 1.6 memory?

    I have a very similar build and I also need help. This is my first build (very green newbie). Same msi mobo, amd fx-6350, 1 stick of ddr3 8gb ram 1866. Everything was working great, running Ubuntu. I went into bios and switched memory to 1866. It had been running "auto" at 1333. Clicked the "x"...
