    $500 and it doesn't even come with a TPM, trash tier LOL!
    In all seriousness though $500 is a boat load for a tiny motherboard.

    • What board comes with TPM?

        it was a joke. None yet, I don't think.

          It definitely has it. Most modern boards/cpus have it built in (past 5 years or so since Skylake 6th gen). Look under PCH settings. It can also be labelled as Intel PTT

            @elli0t: on another note, the scalping for TPM modules has already started. https://www.windowscentral.com/psa-scalpers-are-hoarding-tpm…

              @jd3shaw: From that article:

              Plenty of modern motherboards support TPM in the form of firmware, which can be enabled through the UEFI. Laptops and pre-built PCs can come with TPM either soldered or already attached to the mainboard. But there are instances where TPM isn't supported, which is where a module such as this can come into play.

              **It's likely your PC doesn't actually need (nor supports) a physical TPM2.0 module. **

              Strangely, this is such a niche component since not all motherboards will require a physical TPM2.0 module

                @elli0t: I stand corrected. Thanks for the edumacation. I've enabled this on my gaming PC just now, ready for W11 preview.

                  @jd3shaw: No worries, it's pretty confusing. They probably could've been clearer about it on the requirements page.

  • There plenty of z490 for much less than this. I can't see why buy it.

    • ITX tax

      • Even the itx one. eBay has some for sub 300

      yep, I got the MSI Z490-I for $339 recently

    I still don't understand how people can get full size PC down to this size. Boggles the mind

    • +2

      because it's not a full-size PC

      1x PCIe, 2x DIMM

      • I can't count the amount of times I've built a PC with plans to use all 4 DIMMs (after starting with just 2)… by the time I can afford/need the extra RAM, there's a new technology out that I end up buying and replacing the whole board
