It's 8 years old. FFS install Linux and have a little server or some shit if you really can't be bothered to upgrade.
Ok so if you built a computer in like 2019 or 2020 it's only 4-5 years old. This was before windows 11 came out. 4-5 years is not that old for a computer, especially if you built a good one.
This is what happened to me, a really high end PC built in 2018 and I couldn't even upgrade because of the TPM stuff! Decided to try out Zorin and have been pleasantly surprised.
9 times out of 10 you can turn TPM on on these machines, and even then, i'm told "Can't upgrade to Windows 11."
Been using Linux for years, it's my daily driver and does everything I need except for a few headaches with a AAA game here or there, other than that it runs all my games does all my web browsing and all my video editing and other stuff without issues.
Nothing built in 19 doesn't have tpm.
It's also CPU generation, unless that's changed since the last time I looked.
I have a ryzen 3800X and an x570 motherboard. It was one of the best motherboards at the time. No TPM support. You're wrong.
the 3800X has a built in TPM... So yes. You have a TPM. TPMs don't need to be discrete chips.
Needs to be supported by both cpu and motherboard, as far as I'm aware.

Enable it in bios. It's not really a motherboard support option, but it needs to be initialized in BIOS(UEFI). It's been mandated to be supported in Mobo's for a long time now.
Edit: And because this is Lemmy... Or you could just not deal with it and use Linux :)
Model and brand MB? 3800 had almost universal support so you're almost certainly an edge case if you aren't just incorrect.

Absolutely has TPM. User error.
Guess I need to enable in the bios. Windows 10 said I don't have it lol. I must have disabled it cause I dual boot Linux.
