Cardinal rule of PC shopping for use with Linux, unless you are a Linux developer:
Make sure the major PC components are several months or more older than
your selected distro's original release date.

"Debian 11 (Bullseye) was released on 14 August 2021.[1] It is based on the Linux
5.10 LTS kernel and will be supported for five years.[187]"
Your situation is backwards, distro released (2021) long before the hardware
(2022). Thus, out-of-the-box Bullseye can't be expected to support your GPU. To
use Bullseye, at the least you need either a backport kernel containing Alder Lake
support, or Bookworm (Testing) or Sid (Unstable).
