I guess I missed the last paragraph,

> The importance of the chipset can't be understated. As proof, to this very day, VMware virtualization software always uses the Intel 440BX as the default chipset, even with Windows 11 as both the host and guest.

It raises the obvious question of whether that will need to change, or already has.

In the recent versions is using the Intel Q35, but you can still use the 440BX for legacy compatibility
