[SOLVED] How to make 2 PCs ready for Win 11

[kamal9deuce]

I have 2 PCs

PC 1:
i7 3770k
ASUS P8P67 M Pro
16gb Corsair Vengeance Ram 1600mhz
1TB WD Green
1TB Seagate Barracuda
CX 500m PSU

PC 2:
FX 8350
ASUS Sabertooth 990FX Rev 2.0
16gb Corsair Vengeance Ram 1600mhz
1TB WD Blue
250gb Samsung SSD
Seasonic 500w PSU

How do I get TPM 2.0/ fTPM / PTT enabled on these devices.

Many Thanks

You can check the compatibility of your motherboard here :

[Motherboard] Which ASUS model supports Windows 11 and how to setup TPM 2.0 in BIOS? | Official Support | ASUS USA

In case it's not listed, you still can install Windows 11 by following this guide

Will the bypass work on the official release ? You will have to find an ISO of the official version ?

Enabling TPM isn't going to help much when both CPUs are not on the CPU support list. Unless W11 requirements change then bypass is your only option.

No way to answer this question before official release is out.

As of right now, the cut off is at 8th gen Intel and 2nd gen (since Ryzen) AMD. Officially all of the PC equipped with older CPU will have to continue on Windows 10 until EOS. After that it appears that MS is leaving owners in the cold.
Personally feel like they are just begging you to consider open source OS like Linux, etc. Just my .02 I can only imagine that MS will come to a different state of mind by the end of year, or 2025 one way or the other. I cannot see them throwing users away.

Irrelevant.

Both those CPUs are far off the bottom of the current compatible CPU list for Win 11.

The 3770k will be 13 years old by the time Win 10 falls off support from MS in 2025.
That's a pretty good lifespan.
