Any tips and tricks I should know?

[Ghostface Killah]

Since I built a new computer, are there any tips or tricks I should know before and after I turn on the computer? For example: changing some settings in the bios, installing this and that, doing this and that.
Thanks

First things first: Driver updates. Then you can mess around (if you know how) with the bios and oc it.

Should I flash the bios and install the motherboard updates? Anything I should mess around with in the bios?

First thing, once you have it built and running, I highly suggest you install any drivers that come with your hardware. Once you've got that done, and everything still works, you can hop online and start downloading any updates that may be available that weren't on the packaged disks. After all of your hardware drivers have been updated, update windows. Then, if you feel like, stress test your setup to make sure your comp is actually running the way it should. After all of that, start tweaking your BIOS, if you know how. Good luck.
