Why? Little bit of logic tells you that's not correct.Me, I was pissed to just read that an AMD-based rig will not pass the "health test" for Win 11.
DirectStorage is a pro...
Have they said anything that tied DirectStorage to Windows 11? Previously they pitched it as a DirectX feature.
So what do you guys think of Windows 11, based on information from Microsoft?
Me, I was pissed to just read that an AMD-based rig will not pass the "health test" for Win 11.
yes, as per techyescity's vid i posted somewhere around here...I'm wondering if all of those OEM gray market Windows 7 activation codes will continue to work, or if MS will use this as an opportunity to bork those.
No doubt there will be a robust market in after-market solutions for both desktops and laptops. I wouldn't be suprised if someone sold a TPM socket for regular PCI cards LOL.I'll try it out when it pops, but the whole TPM thing for consumer use is a little sketchy IMO. While I can't guess (right now) what exactly they are going to do with it, I'm sure there are some nebulous anti-cconsumer use cases possible with the TPM being active all the time.
lots of new consumer units have them now and all ryzen chips have it built in, so....I'll try it out when it pops, but the whole TPM thing for consumer use is a little sketchy IMO.

Nice surprise about the Ryzen chips.lots of new consumer units have them now and all ryzen chips have it built in, so....
so do i have to enable this tpm in the bios before installing? i dont recall ever messing around with that setting so farlots of new consumer units have them now and all ryzen chips have it built in, so....
OR it wont be a requirement once it actually launches, maybe a recommendation.
I'm hoping for the latter... I remember the big hullabaloo about TPM before Vista launched and how it mostly turned into a big nothing when the OS droppedlots of new consumer units have them now and all ryzen chips have it built in, so....

i just tested it with my existing install. left it as is(off) and ran the check too, said i failed. went into bios, enabled tpm, now it says i pass. it also told me that i wouldnt get the upgrade to 11, just continuing 10 updates, until i turned it on. so im assuming you have to have it on to do a fresh install or upgrade.so do i have to enable this tpm in the bios before installing? i dont recall ever messing around with that setting so far
guess we'll see, and yeah i remember that too, lots of reeeeeeing then nothing.I'm hoping for the latter... I remember the big hullabaloo about TPM before Vista launched and how it mostly turned into a big nothing when the OS dropped
lists are in the other thread, one for each. all ryzens have tpm built in, new intels might, someone mentioned something about the new chips having it.This supported I Intel processors list only goes back to 8th Gen Intel Core processors... Not sure if they have a supported AMD processor list... I couldn't find it.

Between this and the TPM requirement, a lot of people will be looking at a new PC instead of an upgrade. I guess 2025 is still 4 years away, so a lot of the devices that don't meet the requirements may be retired by then.
went ahead and turned mine on.......figured might as well be ready loli just tested it with my existing install. left it as is(off) and ran the check too, said i failed. went into bios, enabled tpm, now it says i pass. it also told me that i wouldnt get the upgrade to 11, just continuing 10 updates, until i turned it on. so im assuming you have to have it on to do a fresh install or upgrade.
lol so did i cause i want to see if updates(im on insider) will offer it to me.went ahead and turned mine on.......figured might as well be ready lol
speaking of which....i was insider for years but got away when things went bonkers for a bit. Been thinking of getting back into it lately for kind of the same reason. You using it full time or is it too buggy?lol so did i cause i want to see if updates(im on insider) will offer it to me.
seems fine to me. i have only ever been on insider with my main home system. have only had a couple minor issues the whole time and they were fixed in the next updates. this install also started as 7, then upped to 8.1, then 10 and ill probably will try upping it to 11.speaking of which....i was insider for years but got away when things went bonkers for a bit. Been thinking of getting back into it lately for kind of the same reason. You using it full time or is it too buggy?
you backup and try it? we dont know yet....So what happens if you are multi-booting Win 10 and want to upgrade (for free of course!) ?

5800xSo what do you guys think of Windows 11, based on information from Microsoft?

Oh noes. Those people will have to go buy another $10 key.I'm wondering if all of those OEM gray market Windows 7 activation codes will continue to work, or if MS will use this as an opportunity to bork those.
Maybe then the Linux kernel developers will start adding on useful stuff instead of wasting time on things like getting it to run on a Nintendo 64Microsoft lol making sure all the semi Linux literate dual boaters will be annoyed. Lots of people disable that stuff and just install Linux in legacy mode. I can see some broken setups for some dual booters.
Anything else related to this, does that mean we won't have to buy a tpm module for asrock boards? Namely I watched and my motherboard b450m has a 17 pin tpm slot.To get support for windows 11 on asrock b450m steel legend or similar, probably applies to other asrock
The last version of the BIOS, Advanced - CPU Configuration --- AMD fTPM switch SET ON--- AMD CPU fTPM
For me now it reports for 2700x that the PC supports windows 11, you just need to include amd cpu fTPM in the bios
