Im Running windows 11 right now and I pretty much enjoy it so far. It was a hazzle for me to get the tpm to work since im using an AMD CPU ( 2700x ). At the moment I have all my upgrade parts ready, but someone from work told me that the tpm stores their values into the cpu and if you switch cpu's its going to cause you issues with windows 11. I dont think this is true, but now im really doubting myself since im ready to replace these parts. The cpu i am upgrading to is a ryzen 9 5900x and gpu is from gtx 1080 to a rtx 3090 ti oc. Would this even matter even if im going to reinstall windows 11?
It doesn't matter whether you install it at the same time. TPM is mainly used as a quick way to handle authentication. For BitLocker, you'll need your recovery key during the initial boot, after which everything should return to normal. If you had Windows Hello configured for login credentials, you'll have to set that up again from scratch. That covers the typical user setup.
