Does it have Modern Standby and can it be disabled in some way via Registry key or via rEFInd + ACPI patcher module that's on GitHub and if so, does S3 sleep return?

Hello Dear Alan,

You scored TUF F15 connectivity 79 but at the same time TUF F17 connectivity scored 69 by Christian Hintze! As you know, these two devices share the same connectivity properties. That means your scoring system is not comparable, users will appreciate it if you could solve this problem with supervising or any other solution like define a scoring standard system.

Great article however no mention of TPM and windows 11 compatibility.  With Windows 11 just around the corner you could spend quite a bit of money on a new machine that is instantly outdated.  Could you update the article for Windows 11 compatibility?

I bought mine in September 2022. I didn't buy it for gaming; I bought it for processing power to work with (data mining, analysis, etc). Shortly after, it started overheating, despite sitting on a cooling stand with fans. The constant overheating led to the SSD conking in after 4 months. Just 4 months. The design is poor as far as cooling is concerned. Don't waste your money.
