Z97 Extreme 4 TPM version support

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

   Damn, I guess the naming isn't consistent between models. Someone here found a
version 2.50b for an 8x series board that worked. One thing I am sure of however;
if it's on the board's official product page then it doesn't support TPM 2.0. 

JZ (here on the forums) or "u/CornFlakes1991" (on redit) has a very well maintained
BIOS repository here:
https://botflakes.de/asrockwiki/bios/intel/

It may be worth looking at BIOS versions that are no longer listed on ASRock's
website but still exist on JZ's repository. The date should be around 2017 if
that helps. Sadly I don't have any 8x/9x boards to test with.

Good luck guys, hopefully someone will either find or be able to create an update
that works for this. To be very clear, I do not speak for ASRock, I am only a
community moderator so this is just my own personal interest, hoping that this
thread will help someone. 

I have already migrated all my old/unsupported systems to linux and they all work
perfectly for what I need.

	I find it utterly ridiculous that a system capable of solid FPS at a decent frame rate is suddenly redundant because of a stupid "security" feature. In my case it hasn't been an issue, I don't really game that much anymore and when I do it's on my main system so Linux has been my go to operating system on my spare systems for a long while now. With Bazzite and other gaming focused distros the game support is surprisingly good these days but it still rules out games like BO7 that require TPM 2.0 to even run. The "anti cheat" excuse is pretty weak IMHO. I am still expecting to see a reversal for MMOFPS and games like LoL once they drop players. A large portion of the player bases for these games are on "unsupported hardware", particularly with RAM prices/shortages preventing a lot of people from upgrading. Time will tell I guess. I personally suspect one of 2 things will happen: 1. Games will remove TPM 2.0 requirements. 2. A third party will implement TPM 2.0 on unsupported hardware. The third option is its wishful thinking.... 11 years out of a system is good going
