Do I really need to use the CD to install some software and such to my GPU in order to work properly? And what about other pc parts as well? My case isn't compatible to have an optical drive.

Don't bother. it's the same stuff you can get from their website or through geforce experiece

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

No, it just has old drivers on it - you can get the most up to date ones from Nvidias website
