I have asus maximus formula ix it has a dead led in it so I'm getting a replacement.

So my question is do I need to do anything to get the computer ready for the replacement?
Do i need to uninstall any drivers?
Will I need to install anything on the new 1?
Or can I just plug everything in and go?

Depends on if you get the same board or not. If it's the exact same board the about the only extra setup you may need to take is re adjusting your bios settings. If running windows it may complain/have you re activate but worst case scenario a quick call to Microsoft will fix that.
