Good afternoon ASRock and nice to meet you.
I'm a private individual from Valencia (Spain), who has bought an ASRock X670E TAICHI motherboard, and I'll receive it next week.
I have computer skills, but I would like to make sure I do and configure everything correctly, please correct me if I am wrong.

1- First, I'm going to update to the latest BIOS 3.01 using BIOS Flash Back, and a USB stick on the rear panel, without having to put my Ryzen 7950X3D. I don't want to risk having a Taichi X670E with a very old BIOS, and damaging the 7950X3D.

2- Once the BIOS has been updated to the latest version 3.01. I'll put the Processor, and I'll go into UEFI BIOS to configure what is necessary, to do an installation of Windows 11 Pro. And this is where I have my doubts, and I would greatly appreciate it if you could answer me, what is the correct way to set it up.

MY QUESTIONS:

1- The ASRock X670E TAICHI motherboard comes by default with: UEFI/Advanded/AMD BIOS fTPM switch Off or On?. I ask because I want after updating the BIOS with the FlashBack procedure, to be able to change it to: "AMD CPU fTPM" to Enable TPM 2. 0 in Windows 11. I don't have BitLocker or anything like that, but I've already had problems with the creation of TPM 2. 0, with my old Asus motherboard, I didn't believe it.

2- What parameters do I have to "modify in the BIOS", before installing Windows 11, such as Enable or Disable CSM, change in BOOT the type of Operating System if Windows-UEFI or Legacy, etc?. What do I have to modify?

PS: I regret my way of expressing myself, I hope you understand me well, because I am from Spain, I do not speak English and I use a Translator. Thank you very much and receive a cordial greeting.

you can use BIOS on default settings. The PC will run absolutely fine, except the memory will be at slower speed 4800mhz (which is hardly noticable), so I would suggest at minimum loading the XMP or EXPO profile.

Beside setting up memory I also apply 'CPU per core Curve Optimizer undervolt' (i keep the numbers in my phone), disable boot logo, set the boot delay to 0 seconds and thats it. I might disable iGPU if I dont need it.

the first memory training can take up to 5 mins

The only real problem you can encounter setting up a Asrock motherboard is that - if you are a linux user - you have to manually add your bootloader to motherboard NVRAM using efibootmgr, because BIOS will only detect the Windows EFI and present it in boot menu, or so it was in early 1.21 BIOS when I was setting up my b650m-hdv-m.2 april last year.
