Upgrading from a 2700x to a 5600x and besides a bios update (ASUS TUF x570 plus), what other steps should I take on the software side in windows before install? I know a GPU driver clean is suggested when upgrading your GPU (not like anybody is doing that now馃榿).

Thanks for any advice.

Nothing else you need to do 馃檪 Up-to-date BIOS is all you need. Give Windows a full reboot after the CPU install (start > on/off > restart instead of shutdown) for good measure.
