Release of Windows 12, possibly backtracks Windows 11 decision of requiring TPM.

I hope so, I built my own PC less than 4 years ago and it can't run windows 11. I don't care that much at the moment because I'm not a fan of some of the UI choices (and I only use Windows for gaming anyways) but once support is dropped for Windows 10 I'll need options.

Oh of course, Linux is my everyday machine (I have 2 separate hard drives in my tower). I just haven't taken the time to figure out Steam yet, and there are some pieces of work software that either work like shit on Linux or aren't available at all (yes, I know Wine is a thing but it's not perfect)

You can install win11 on older hardware. Even update win10 to win11 from older hardware. It is just a matter of disabling the right settings.

For a fresh install, use Rufus to create the bootable usb.

An update install is a bit trickier, but you can check the following article: https://www.techrepublic.com/article/how-to-install-windows-11-on-older-unsupported-pcs/
