Question What is everything i need to do after building this PC?

[User09_]

Someone i know has helped me build my new PC but im not really sure on what to do after its built. I have only updated the BIOS and installed Windows 11. Every tutorial i find on what to do after building your PC doesnt explain things very well so im making a thread here instead. What is everything i need to do after this? Is there drivers i need to install?, setting in the BIOS i need to change etc. Any help is much appreciated.

Here is the build: https://se.pcpartpicker.com/list/QjkZgB

You're advised to install the OS in offline mode, and while you're disconnected from the internet, install all drivers relevant to your platform with the latest driver versions in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator.

Yes in order to install the drivers, you would need to download them beforehand on a donor platform and have them on a pen drive.

It's a good idea to clear your CMOS after you've updated/flashed the BIOS for your motherboard with the latest version.

You'll find drivers for your motherboard(LAN, Audio, chipset and MEI) on your motherboard's support site, same place you sourced the BIOS files for the flash/update.

GPU drivers, you source them from AMD's support site;
https://www.amd.com/en/support/down...on-rx-7000-series/amd-radeon-rx-7900-gre.html
which is meant for your GPU.

Don't let the OS install drivers it thinks is right for your platform since that's what causes issues or an underperforming system/platform.
