I have never built a PC before in my life and I have no clue what kind of drivers and software I'll need to install, I'd like to know what I need so I can run my PC properly, thank you in advance

List is set as private. Can’t see ?

 

drivers and such you you don’t have to worry about too much as usually windows download 99% of needed drivers after installing it ?

you don't need to worry about drivers, downloading things like the RGB software, fan controller, benchmarks, gpu software and msi afterburner are what you CAN worry about

Go to your motherboards page on the manufacturers website and look for the drivers there (usually by clicking the 'Support' button). As others have mentioned, on Windows 10 you won't really need to do this. However, I would suggest going to Nvidia's website and getting the updated drivers for your 2080. Drivers must be approved by Microsoft (which takes time) before Windows 10 will auto download them so your GPU drivers will usually be out of date until you manually install them.

My dude what are you doing lmao

OP asked about drivers. Not to change their build.

You dropped to a worse cooler, non rgb ram, a worse psu and an entirely different case than what OP choose.

Youre gonna need to explain those choices there...

The link linked to a different build than the build he posted seperate, Hadn’t reload comments at that’s point. That was a 2700x build ?

 

edit, now it shows the other build. Oh well, internet failing on me
