Question Are there best practice tweaks to make to Win11 system with NVME m.2?

[Agro]

Upgrading from i7-10700k, 32gb ddr, etc. to i9-14900k, 64gb ddr5, 4090, Samsung 990 Pro, etc...

Are there best practice tweaks that should be made on Win11 with NVME's? I remember back in Win7, lots of things you had to turn off and change.
Does anyone mess with the paging file still? Do you move it to another volume (like I have 1 2gb 990 pro and 1 1tb 970 evo+)?
Do you have to change TRIM?
Do you still go out and grab the latest Intel INF setup.exe stuff?
I still plan to get the GeForce drivers, as I figure that makes a big diff over doing whatever Windows ships with?
Is there anything that you can recommend I need to look into to basically maximize performance for this that isn't pushing the envelope more like CPU OC etc?

Thank you.

No. The drive will be recognized in the BIOS. Please read what needs to be done. It isn't much. CPU can OC themselves when needed. No reason to OC on a 24/7 basis shortining the CPU's longevity. You can set RAM to run at advertised or OC in the BIOS. Don't mess with the page file. Windows 7 is ancient history.

Not really, no.

Nothing special needs to be done.
