So my specs are

Ryzen 5 2600

Asrock b450m-pro4

EVGA GTX 960 SCC

on Asrock's site https://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/B450M%20Pro4/index.asp#BIOS , it tells me Please install "AMD all in 1 with VGA driver ver:18.10.20_NHDA" or a later version before updating to this BIOS. The thing is that i have Nvidia GPU , and i dont wanna interfere with gpu's drivers , non the less install some drivers that arent for my gpu , so how should i do the bios ?

That is only relevant if you have an AMD CPU with integrated graphics. You STILL need to have the latest chipset drivers installed first though and it MAY include the drivers for the AMD integrated graphics because they generally bundle them together in their AIO package.

It's not going to hurt anything to have those drivers installed, it's essential in any case, at least if you install the all in one package. I would simply make sure you have THIS chipset driver framework installed and then update.

Mostly that AIO driver package is only required if you have a newer AMD CPU that does have intgrated graphics. Since yours does not I would not be concerned.


So i should go ahead and just flash the bios update , not even bother with the red colored letters , right?
