what drivers do i need?

[LurchLord]

hi there! 
all the parts for my first pc build will arrive very soon and i am kinda unsure what drivers i actually need, cuz i bet theres alot of bloatware.

parts i orderd
cpu: amd 5 7600x3d
gpu: gigabyte 9070xt gaming oc
mobo: asrock livemixer 850 (also how do i update the bios version so my x3d doesnt go kaboom ?)
ram:  gskill ripsaw s5 ddr5 32gb 6000 cl32

psu: seasonic 850 focus

now i do already have 2 ssds i plan to port to the new system, anything i need to do? or just plug and go? and i guess ill pre install all the drivers now so the new system can make use of them on first boot? 
to my knowledge i only need the gpu driver and probably the lan driver for the mobo right?
apreciate the help!

You need all the drivers on the motherboard manufacturer page (Chipset, LAN, Wifi, Bluetooth, Audio) as well as GPU drivers from AMD (get from AMD, google "Adrenaline").

 

Update BIOS if you feel like it, google Youtube videos for a video walkthru.

 

No, don't preinstall anything.  Clean install Windows on a SINGLE drive after you build machine, then do all the drivers above, THEN install the other SSD's in the system.  Format them or not, up to you.

Windows loves to spread itself all over any drives when it installs, so only have 1 in there.

 

For Win11, put Wifi drivers on a USB stick since there are no generic drivers in the Win11 install package.

 

Now go into BIOS, turn on XMP/EXPO for RAM to run at 6000/MTs.  Google how to set PBO +200 and Curve Optimizer for CPU to -20 or -30 to be a little more efficient.

 

Disable onboard graphics as well, may have to google where they are for that mobo.

 

If you have any clarifying questions after watching video on how to do the above, feel free to ask here.  I say Google it, cuz I have no idea where exactly the settings are in that specific motherboard/BIOS
