assuming the CPU support list is decided by TPM 2.0 availability

This was me before I checked the compatibility app. Windows never bothered me with Windows11 update so I thought It didn't have TPM2.0+. I got curious and used the compatibility checker.

The laptop had TPM 2.1, but CPU is not compatible. oh well…

Probably for the best -- using it without those hardware features is rough. I was using a Ryzen 1600AF -- which is odd because it's not on the list although it installs normally with no issue because it's really an underclocked Ryzen 2600 Zen+ chip. The Zen+ chips are on the support list but they lack some of the virtualization features in hardware. I was seeing a massive difference in performance when I toggled the security settings that used them. Sometimes 15-20% difference in games.
