If my i9 10850K support TPM 1.2, how do I activate this?
In my BIOS in security section I can set TPM to either PTT or dTPM ?!?!

Sure some will disagree but I think Microsoft have shot themselves in the foot on this one with regards to the TPM, especially during a shortage of chips and parts in the global pandemic. Not everyone is going to be able to update their systems, there isnt a lot of stuff out there unless your prepared to pay silly prices
From Google:
"Some Dell systems do not ship with a TPM(Trusted Platform Module) module, and instead, use PTT (Platform Trust Technology). PTT is a lower-cost solution that supports the same functions of the TPM. 23 dic. 2020".
dTPM may refer to discrete TPM, a separate chip in the mobo.
Try both to see which, if any, makes a difference regarding Win 11.
As for the TPM module...ask ASUS tech support.
As for the rest... I think you'll be fine.
Windows 11 Forum
Please read/re-read my post (#43) here - Introducing Windows 11. I'm speaking on personal experience here, not guesswork. As this article (Microsoft explains Windows 11 requirement of TPM 2.0) states...
As stated most never heard of TPM until the Windows 11 requirements and therefor may not be aware they actually have TPM and thus there's no need to run out and purchase a TPM module. It's already implemented on the motherboard via the BIOS.Even though TPM 2.0 has been in new PCs for years, it's a technology that many hadn't heard of until this week.
Not doubting that, I'm simply saying it also includes "Firmware TPM" (TPM integrated into the BIOS). I have yet to see anything that specifically excludes "Firmware" TPM. Do you have a link saying Firmware TPM won't work???
Lastly, if one bought a Windows 10 based PC from a vendor then it most likely already using TPM since Microsoft made it a requirement last year for the Windows 10 requirements - https://www.microsoft.com/security/b...mware-attacks/
By the time Windows 11 is released to the general public most of the shortages will be a thing of the past. And again, most people already have TPM but don't know it. And as noted (a few times) Windows already includes tools to let you know if your machine has TPM or not, also what version.
Good luck.
Personally I think the PC Health app is designed to tell users they need a new PC or there's something wrong with the app. My 2 year old home build (gaming desktop) failed the first check, went into bios, made sure UEFI Secure boot was on, activated the TPM 2.0 (set to Firmware) on my Asus Prime X470-Pro/Ryzen 7 2700 chip and checked my graphics card. Also upgraded my BIOs, all set up to meet the stated requirements.
Ran the check again and it failed again..........
