    man I’m facing either needing to get a new pc in THIS market to use 10, or find an entire new professional software workflow to do my job. professional video on Linux isn’t real. hobbysist video sure, but pro video work with partners just isn’t realistic on linux.

    this is the first thing that’s actually pushing me hard.

          Even if it’s windows 11 that they meant then what are they doing professionally that runs at acceptable speeds?

          If this is actually for work where you get paid money you’d probably be better off financing a new computer and doubling your output.

            i did mean 11, My pc is plenty powerful it just doesn’t happen to include a tpm chip. i have no issues with power. it handles 4k 120p 10 bit timelines fine. upgrading right now in this market would be asinine if software wasn’t pushing me into 11.

            There are plenty of very powerful machines that can’t run win11 because they don’t have TPM2.0. It has nothing to do with their specs being unable to run the OS. It’s a scam by Microsoft to force people to upgrade

              TPM is built into every 8th Gen. Intel and Ryzen 2000/3000 series CPUs.

              7th Gen. and older machines are pretty dire by modern standards unless you had a top of the line i7, or an HEDT equivalent (did they still make those then?). 1st Gen. Ryzen suuucks for single core performance, but for video editing it’s probably ok. But you’d have to pick your codecs carefully. Even modern CPUs chug with certain codecs.

            I don’t think they were talking about firefox. I think they were just complaining in general. The bit about needing to buy new equipment is what gives it away that they’re talking about not having TPM2.0.

            Edit: Just saw that they confirmed my guess under a different response to me.

      Yoy are doing professional video work on a PC old enough that it can’t run Windows 10?
