GIGABYTE GC-TPM2.0 TPM 2.0 Module 20 Pin

SKU CH-YG6J-QHSCM

Adds hardware-based TPM 2.0 security via a 20-pin motherboard header for encryption key storage

  • Hardware-based encryption protects sensitive data with a discrete TPM 2.0 cryptographic processor
  • Secure key storage enables Windows BitLocker drive encryption for full-disk protection
  • 20-pin header connection integrates directly with compatible motherboard TPM connectors
  • Daughter board design adds a dedicated security layer separate from the main CPU
  • Physical hardware module safeguards credentials against software-only attacks

Trusted Platform Module 2.0

The GIGABYTE GC-TPM2.0 is a discrete cryptographic processor on a daughter board that plugs into a motherboard header. It provides hardware-based security for users who need stronger protection than software alone can deliver. Accountants, insurance agents and anyone handling sensitive personal data benefit from the added encryption layer. The module stores cryptographic keys created by tools such as Windows BitLocker.

20-pin header interface

The single specification that decides compatibility is the 20-pin bus header on the motherboard. Only boards with this exact header can accept the module. Systems lacking the header cannot use this TPM, so buyers must verify the motherboard layout before purchase. No other connector type or adapter is supported by the design.

TPM 2.0 capacity and headroom

The module implements the TPM 2.0 standard for secure key storage and platform integrity measurements. It comfortably handles full-disk encryption, secure boot attestation and firmware protection for typical desktop workloads. It runs out when a platform requires a newer TPM revision or a different physical interface not provided by the 20-pin header.

Questions about this item

How does the TPM 2.0 module protect my data once installed?

The discrete cryptographic processor stores encryption keys created by software such as Windows BitLocker, keeping drive contents encrypted and inaccessible without the key.

What header does the 20-pin connector plug into on the motherboard?

It connects to a dedicated 20-pin TPM header on compatible motherboards.

What physical space does the daughter board require inside the case?

The module mounts directly on the motherboard header, adding only the height of the small daughter board above the board surface.
