I hope someone can help me on this... I'm a novice who has a custom-built Windows 10 desktop (built by someone else!) with an AMD FX-8350.

I've read Windows 11 requires TPM.

Does anyone know if my AMD has that feature, and if it does, how I can turn it on?

Thanks for any help!

W10 is supposed to be supported till 2025, W11 has not even been released why stress over it now.
In 2025 your processor will be 13 years old.

Yes, your motherboard has a TPM module connector. Note, it's only a connector. You'll have to buy the actual TPM module for it.

Note -- TPM has nothing to do with your CPU model which you alluded to in your first post.


Thank you again, Phillip. Much appreciated.

I fear I've reached my tech limits:( - I don't think I'm experienced enough to find the right connector, or to install it.

I guess I need to wait for W11 until I get a new PC.

Thank you again,

Alan
