System requires adjustment
According to German media deskmodder, the memory requirements of the "Win12" system have been upgraded from 4 GB to 8GB, and a Pluton chip is required to complete specific tasks and versions.
Pluton is a secure processor integrated directly into the main processor of computers, tablets and smartphones. It is designed to provide a hardware-based root of trust that helps ensure that the security features of a device are tamper-resistant and secure.
Microsoft intends to retain existing TPM (Trusted Platform Module) and processor requirements. The increase in memory may be related to cloud system CloudPC services.
