Thanks for the link. I signed up for the "be a senior software engineer in a bunch of lunches" class. I am already making 100K euros a year. All I had to do was give them my bank account info. Should receive my first payment next week.

That guy in the video is really full of himself. I have seen a lot of his videos over the years. Some of his content is good, most is meh.

realising more and more - some people that waffling talk, some don't. I'm the don't, or if do what good presentations do is - start with End goal, overview points, then each point with refreshing of goal and progress through points.
As to if software developers needed in future. Yes, I think there is still a middle work group missing. Think of it like the car mechanic down the road. There are a lot of those people where it's ok money, a job for them, maybe some it was hobby, but primarily it is a job.
They do not aspire to work at Super big car manufacture working on the next exhaust pipe.
But software is still this Big top cutting edge thing. Many people can buy an inexpensive drill and hang a self. But software still bullies this idea and flaunts no-code as a pro and con, where in contrast Ikea exists, and still many ranges of furniture around it.
But as long as it's seen that no - Top teir always new code is only code mentality it will keep out this middle worker, and push the work to people that should be working on next gen, and keep people that could do that work away.

The new motherboard is from them and is really well thought out: Normally, the "long PCIe" slot is nearer the processor than the "short ones" so a modern graphics card block access - not so with this. Same thing with the SATA connectors: they are stacked so the cables don't have to go through the expansion cards and you don't need angled connectors. And I was impressed to find 6 USB on the back (4 USB2, 2 USB3) - and even more impressed to find two more USB3 on a header for the front panel.
All the cable connectors were clear and easy to work out and install (unlike some) so the hardware installation went really quickly
The manual is pretty good too - everything is there and pretty easy to find.
Then you get to the BIOS - and it continues to be good. The best I've seen in terms of making it clear what is where and what it does. Nice.
Never heard of them before, but I'll definitely bear them in mind in future.

Core i7-9700 - released 2 1/2 years ago, as "new stock" that's been sitting in the warehouse for a while so was going cheap (less than the price of the processor alone for it already in the MB)

Does this board support the requirements for Win 11?
|
|
|
|

It does - but that may be because I added a £10 TPM2 module from FleaBay to it (there was a header on the MB for it, so for the money I'd have been silly not to).
Did I need to? Probably not since the processor is on the compatible list, but I know what MS is like sometimes ...

Without the TPM module the board wouldn't make it onto the Windows 11 supported list. Windows 11 uses the TPM module to secure the hardware boot to OS startup sequence, reducing the chance of a rootkit installing on the system before Windows security can take over.
In fact, all the hardware requirements for Windows 11 and Server 2022 are based on improving system security.
TPM2: Required to secure the system startup process. Turns out TPM v1.x has some serious security holes in it.
Intel Gen 9 or later chips or the AMD equivalent: This is so the OS can virtualize itself to protect both itself and applications from cross-app boundary attacks. These processors support this natively. The easy way to check a Windows 10 machine for these instructions is to see if you can turn on Core Isolation.
The next two requirements aren't for security - they're for a combination of system features and bloatware.
RAM: "640K ought to be enough for anyone" - allegedly Bill Gates but he claims otherwise.
Disk Space: Needed to support all the idiotic games that preinstall.

Not quite, it seems - Intel Gen9 and up processors have Intel Trusted eXecution Technology (TXT) which is TPM2 on die - it may need to be enabled via your BIOS though.
Trusted Execution Technology - Wikipedia[^]
So the MB TMP2.0 module is probably not needed (but I got it because it's cheap and means I can be sure it's there if Wiki and all the other net sources turned out to be untrue).

TPM2 is a requirement for the Intel Trusted eXecution Technology, but it's not on the processor itself. I couldn't remember if it was Gen 8 or Gen 9 and later chips that have this or not.

Have you done any research on reliability? I'm just about ready to build a new one, since current PC won't run Win11.

I did what I could, and saw one review which was negative (as well as inarticulate) - all the others said they had no problems at all, and many of them were on their fifth or sixth Asrock motherboard as they upgraded. Which kinda says it all really - if they were rubbish but cheap, you'd try something else the third or fourth time, I suspect!
All I can say on reliability from my person perspective is "too early to say" - it's been less than a week and it hasn't broken yet, but the use of more expensive parts like stacked connectors indicates quality to me.

That's good to hear! I did some research myself today and found few complaints. One issue I saw was that overclocking isn't well supported, but I've never done that, and see no reason to do so. I've always used Gigabyte boards, after SuperMicro got too pricey, and that's what most sites recommend. Asrock is significantly cheaper than Gigabyte, and I could use the savings to upgrade the video card. My new monitor (the old one died as a result of my performing some gunsmithing while sitting in front of it - reinstalling the recoil spring on a 1911 can be tricky) supports far higher resolution than my current card can handle. One article pointed out the superior arrangement of the PCI slots, and much better design for the SATA ports. I'm not done doing research but this is looking attractive. Thanks for the info!!!

I have to agree with the slot placement: the previous board was Gigabyte and the "long PCIe slot" was closest to the processor. Given that modern video cards are double thickness to get the cooling fans and heat pipes and whatnot in there, that means the second PCIe slot is covered by the graphics card, and the third is directly in front of the fans and either blocks airflow or is getting gently roasted ... The Asrock board I got has the long slot on the board edge, where it can't foul the other slots, and it's better supported by the PCB standoffs.
Just shows attention to detail and "user focus" instead of "easy for the hardware designer"
