While looking over the specs and manual for EVGA's Z390 FTW motherboard, I noticed there was no support for a Trusted Platform Module (TPM).  I also noticed that there's no mention of TPM anywhere on EVGA's site.  Apparently, EVGA doesn't support the module on any of their motherboards.  But, like AMD's Firmware Trusted Platform Module (FTPM), Intel has a Platform Trust Technology (PTT) that implements TPM either in the CPU or the chipset (I'm not sure which).  Unfortunately, as with regular old TPM, I can find no mention of PTT anywhere on EVGA's site or forums.  Does anyone know if PTT is exposed to the user somewhere in the Z390 FTW's BIOS?

Thank you.  That definitely bodes well.  I don't see anything specifying what kind of TPM it's using (though it does say INTC at the top of the screen), but I assume it's Intel's firmware version since there isn't even a TPM header on the motherboard (according to the manual).  The last option is Device Select and is set to Auto.  Are there specific devices available (something like PTT) in the drop-down?

Sure, I will finish up this deep virus scan and get back to you when I can reboot.
 
Looks like that is it.

Thanks.  That's really interesting that it's breaking out the TPM by 1.2 and 2.0 support.  I was under the impression PTT supported the 2.0 version.  This was the last thing that was holding me back on trying an EVGA motherboard this time around.  I wonder why EVGA makes no mention anywhere about PTT being available on these motherboards.
