    Sir_Zeke reacted to StDragon in Windows 11 Now Enforces the Same System Requirements in Virtual Machines - Including TPM   
    Aside from the new look and feel, performance in gaming and other apps is identical to Windows 10. The reason MS is being a hard ass on requirements is to set the bare minimum for hardware based security. Currently VBS and TPM 2.0 is optional with Windows 10 (yes, you can make it as secure as Windows 11), but Windows 11 makes it now mandatory.

    So when Microsoft says Windows 11 is their most secure OS yet, they're not lying. It will be, because the hardware to make that happen is a requirement!

    I don't even understand how ads are so (apparently) lucrative or worthwhile for companies. obv I'm not in marketing. But TBH when I see ads for products/services invading my personal space I actively avoid said product. I'm not sure what my subconscious thinks about it, but I am a true ad hater.

    If anything this actually hurts the supply of GPUs to gamers. They are taking out precious supplies of GPU cores for a lineup no one in their right mind will buy.

    CPU is only a place holder as I will be picking up new Zen 3 CPU, as for Cpu cooler max height is 150 mm  so anything that is smaller than that  and can exhaust heat to the back. I think is crazy to buy £700 motherboard with only extra future 10GB network card. I would prefer to get a separate network card as for now I do not need one. Storage for OS 1TB is more than enough for now and I have a room to get one more in a future when needed. As for RAM i have no clue I know I need 32GB but whats speeds or latency I do not know. I will be water cooling the whole PC and EK has water cooling block for Gigabyte X570 AORUS ULTRA.

    You'll have to check the CPU Cooler height compatibility for that case.
