new motherboard - what to install first?

[philb2]

I'm in the process of upgrading my rig from an ASUS AMD x570 chipset board to an ASUS AMD x670e chipset board.

I know I need to upgrade chipset and other drivers, BIOS, and Windows. In what sequence? I don't use any of the ASUS utilities.

Bios, Windows, then chipset. Some drivers throw a fit if Windows hasn't been updated. (at least in Win10/11)

Youve prob already done everything, but I put everything on a usb drive, then first install a new BIOS.
Then windows (disconnected from internet)
Then drivers....chipset, graphics, sound, ethernet/wireless (all from usb with internet disconnected)
That way, no interference from windows update and you get to choose your driver software. You can then activate windows if you so desire.
