GIGABYTEMotherboard Accessory GC-TPM2.0_S Bulk

I got the TPM chip today. I have a Gigabyte motherboard Gigabyte B450 I AORUS PRO WIFI (AMD Ryzen AM4/M.2 Thermal Guard with Onboard Wifi/HDMI/DP/USB 3.1 Gen 2/Mini ITX/Motherboard), that I bought to setup a computer for our dental clinic.I wanted to have encryption to protect data on the NVME in case of theft or other unforeseen circumstances. Luckily, the motherboard supports TPM. I got the item today and it worked right away. The UEFI BIOS immediately detected it without issues. I got options as well. I posting screen shots.Under Windows 10, Bitlocker immediately worked and recognized it. It offered me to export my keys as well. Encrypting happened smoothly. I rebooted and I'm done. I didn't see any noticeable drop in performance. A bit pricey but it works. I'll order more for the other computers.

I patiently awaited AMD's BIOS/UEFI update to fix the stuttering issue with Ryzen when decoding video. It helped, but did not fix the problem.Since the issue is with the on-CPU TPM module, I decided to get this hardware module. For the price, it was worth fixing the headaches. It works. No more stuttering.Note: If you have Windows 11, you will need to set up your login credentials again. Credentials are stored in TPM, and you just changed which TPM module the motherboard uses. You may also need to turn off fTPM as well, forcing the motherboard to use the hardware module.Also note that TPM modules are vendor-specific, sometimes even board-specific. Check model numbers to make sure you buy the correct one.

Had to buy this as Microsoft requires it to run Windows 11 on Series 800 and up Motherboards. Decent price for the module, and easy to install.

Chip is tiny but fit like a glove when I installed the chip on the motherboard. My computer recognized it immediately didn’t have one issue.

First of all I was getting 0x80000 error and could not use it. After some research, I've discovered that my boot partition was MBR and that Secure Boot settings in MB bios were not available because Compatibility Support Module (CSM) was enabled. If you disable CSM before converting to GPT you won't be able to boot, but you will see Secure Boot options come up in BIOS; therefore in order to make this work i had to first convert MBR to GPT in windows power shell (admin) by running these commands:mbr2gpt /validatembr2gpt /validate /allowFullOSmbr2gpt /convert /allowFullOSRestart. Get in bios and disable CSM. Restart. Make sure you can boot in windows. Then restart and go in bios again to enable secure boot. Restart, boot into windows run tpm.msc and now it will show the status in the screenshot.P.S. Do this at your own risk, and only if your partition is MBR, you have CSM enabled and your Secure Boot options aren't visible in bios.

Appears to be a legitimate Gigabyte part. Easy to install on my Aorus Gaming 9 (X299). Intel Core i9-7900X ready for Windos 11 if I decide to do that.

When I used the TPM with the Gigabyte B550I AORUS Pro AX AMD AM4 Mini-ITX MotherboardIt did what I expected! Plugged it in, and voila, I could install Windows 11 with no problems 👍.

The pin layout doesn't match the product listing, and doesn't fit my Gigabyte motherboard. It seems some other people have had the same issue, so hopefully if you order one you get the correct item.
