All Intel and AMD chips have a TMP like device which can be controlled from outside the booting operating system and can even be woken up with eth- magic packets (if there is stand by power).
There is no way to get around this that I know.
BTW, these "your old platform is vulnerable, no known fix exists" things usually start resurfacing when the new platform for sale isn't racking up as much sales as projected.
That's when the old systems become "a security risk" and the mitigations are half-assed slowdowns and the official recommendation is "scrap your system and upgrade".
It's all about profit.
The TPM chips: that's all about NSA and deep state. Gotta have a backdoor in every chip at hw level.
