it's a 2000 series Ryzen APU, which actually is a Zen chip and not a Zen+ chip, meaning no support, along with the rest of the 1000 series Ryzen chips. As for why it's like this, the answer is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

i assumed it is; your post is making me think otherwise though PS: i didn't know the forum had an option to add emoji like this, i guess you learn something new everyday ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

you only need to go into the BIOS and look for something called PTT, that's Intel's implementation of firmware level TPM emulation. enable it, and TPM 2.0 should be enabled.

no, they changed the requirements to require TPM 2.0 a few days ago, for both new and upgraded systems.

for now I'm thinking dualbooting windows 10 with debian (installing KDE and customising it to my heart's content, unixporn-style); I really wanted to install windows 11, especially because they fixed a lot of the UI problems I had with windows 10 and the fact that it can run android apps was a nice feature I wanted, but if I can't install it on my ryzen 7 1700-based system, linux it is.

i really hope that this kinda stuff is fixed before release, but knowing microsoft, who knows if this'll be a "feature!" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

i think he meant he had paid software on his machine that he can't reactivate for some reason

it's a laptop, so upgrading the CPU is out of the question; sticking with win10 is the best option OP has right now.

microsoft hasn't given a reason for why they're not supported, so we're all in the dark for now. (there are some people speculating that there's either some feature missing from it that microsoft won't tell us, or that microsoft did it as planned obsolescence, but i'd wait for official replies from microsoft on that)

I'm very sorry I have no solution, but I've had similar issues with my build (MSI B450 Tomahawk Max + Ryzen 7 1700), so I'll follow this thread in case someone can find answers.

oh, yeah that PSU looks problematic for ampere's obscenely high peak power requirements, check that out first

this sounds to me like one of two possible issues (i'm not very experienced with PCs, and i did both these mistakes): the GPU is in a slot handled by the chipset instead of the CPU directly (this introduces a ton of extra latency, drastically reducing framerates), or the memory is in the wrong spots and running in single channel (this shouldn't cause the extreme case you have alone, but bundled with possibility #1, it can make a bad stuttering problem worse).

oh hi there, i like to talk

So i ran this on my old PC, and the TPM check failed (as expected), but i expected the directx support to fail as well (see GPU-Z info underlined on the left); the application thinks i do have directx12 support. Any idea why?

it's a cheap dramless ssd, yes, but the problem isn't isntalling windows (that rarely ever takes more than 15 minutes), it's setting everything after the windows installation that takes forever: downloading drivers, installing drivers, downloading apps, installing apps, fixing broken apps that were installed on the other drive, fixing the windows 10 desktop from the default mess it is; that takes hours, if not days. and doing that every few months (either because you don't have enough experience tinkering with windows, or because some stupid bug in a driver causes bootlooping, or because yet another dualbooting attempt was a failure because of windows updates) is very annoying. (this sentence was very long and confusing, but i can't speak english so i guess that's it)

because it takes forever to re-install all your apps, drivers and set them up again? I don't know how your setup is complete in 20 minutes, it takes 15 minutes for the clean install itself to complete, and that doesn't even include the OOBE.

It seems my Dell box from 2012 (or 2013? i don't remember well) neither supports PTT nor has a TPM header to install a physical one, it seems this is becoming a linux box after 2025 (assuming the proprietary PSU lasts that long) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

i did, pls no kil but yes, the overwhelming majority hated them, and i don't think it'll be missed, which i personally feel is unfortunate, but then i'm one person against literally the entire world which hated it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

the reason i'm not comfortable with that is because i don't want my hardware to die on me 3 years down the road because i tortured it too much, i guess i'm too attached to my hardware ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

any hyper 212 clone with good reviews should be more than enough for an extremely OCed 3200G with room to spare. (for example the vetroo v5 you talked about)

that's not really much of an issue unless you go for humongous dual-tower coolers.

i think he meant to what voltage, i'm usually not comfortable with overvolting my hardware, but with a good mobo and PSU, an OC to 4.1-4.2 GHz @1.35v should be pretty stable in the short term at least, no idea about 3-4 years down the line. as for the vetroo v5 @Nidal Hussein, that's already good enough for a 3200G, since even when OCed to the redline, a 3200G is just not that hot.

yes.

well, that's because nobody knows when this will end and what GPUs would be out by then. we're just as confused about GPUs as everybody else, unfortunately.

don't spend any extra money on the CPU for now, since it'll help you save for a GPU down the line. if you still want to sell the 3200G and risk buying the 3400G in a volatile market, then that order is right.
