18. TPM connector
The TPM connector allows you to connect a Trusted Platform Module (TPM). A TPM
securely stores keys, digital certificates, passwords, data, and also helps enhance
network security, protect digital identities, and ensures platform integrity.
The TPM is purchased separately.
19. Q-LEDs
The Q-LEDs check key components (CPU, DRAM, VGA, and booting devices) during
the motherboard booting process. If an error is found, the critical component’s LED
stays lit up until the problem is solved.
The Q-LEDs provide the most probable cause of an error code as a starting point for
troubleshooting. The actual cause may vary from case to case.
