TPM help for H170M Pro4

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have a few computers built with ASROCK H170M Pro4 motherboards.
https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H170M%20Pro4/

Want to install a TPM chip thingy to use with Windows 10,
can someone give me a quick rundown on how that all works and anything to watch out for?

going from https://www.asrock.com/mb/spec/card.asp?Model=TPM-S%20Module

it calls out TPM2-S Module and Nuvoton NPCT650.
I'm assuming I do NOT want "TPM-S Module  (V 1.2)" nor "TPM-s Module (V 2.0)" ?
do I need to specifically buy "Nuvoton NPCT650" ?
Or do I just look for "TPM2-S module"?
can someone explain what the "-S" means on "TPM-S" ?
And do they basically just plug in and work out of the box when running windows 10 pro/enterprise?
I have updated the bios/uefi on all the motherboards to the latest not more than a year ago.
thanks.
