So, for the first time, I am building my own gaming PC, and I have a few questions about setup.
#1: When I first boot my system into BIOS, I will be connecting to my monitor via HDMI. Should I plug the HDMI into the GPU, or into the motherboard?
#2: I am preparing all the drivers I will need in advance, but am kind of unsure about which of these drivers I will need. I will be downloading them onto a flash drive on my current PC and installing them onto the new PC when I get windows installed. From the reading I've done, I know I should download drivers for BIOS, Chipset, LAN, and Audio. But what about the others, like BIOS-Utilities? I plan on connecting a second monitor via VGA, so should I download drivers for that?
Thanks for any help! My build can be found here, for anyone interested.
