Playing games with a modified W11 version Fixes and tweaks for improved performance
Considering an older laptop with an i7-6700HQ and GTX 1070M, playing games on W11 seems challenging. Past experiences show that patching helped with TPM 2.0 requirements, but not all titles are compatible. Some games might work better on newer hardware, while others could be problematic. You might find better options with an i7-8750H or 8th-gen processor, though 6th or 7th-gen models could still be more affordable.
It seems your laptop may not have TPM 2.0 support. Check your BIOS for "Intel Platform Trust Technology," which is the software version of TPM 2.0 built by Intel. Confirm compatibility with your specific board.
Ensure the 8th generation release is installed. An incomplete Windows 11 setup may reject the system if it identifies their Skylake processor.
I've been running my 6700hq 970m laptop on Windows 11 for about three years now. It still runs Sea of Thieves smoothly and Valorant works fine thanks to the TPM chip—though it doesn't have official support from Windows. Juat used Rufus and everything kept going. Your situation might change, and future support is uncertain.
These older laptops often come with budget models in the GTX 1070 or RTX 2070 lineup, and some 1070 series devices may have 6th generation versions.
