Hi,
When purchasing or setting up a new computer for the first time, it's helpful to know which drivers are outdated. For your 2080 Strix, there was a program that let you increase the card clock in gaming mode—though I don’t recall the exact name anymore. To find detailed information about every component of your PC, you might want to look up specific parts or consult manufacturer resources. Any suggestions or advice would be great.

I open the case and check the make and model number of the motherboard and GPU. Usually there isn't anything else requiring additional driver research. The manufacturer's support page will provide you with nearly all the necessary drivers, while the GPU drivers will cover the rest. The order of driver installation matters: start with the chipset, then GPU, followed by Sata, Thunderbolt, Firewire, USB3, LAN/Wifi, and finally audio. Note that not all items might be available on your motherboard, and some could use default Windows drivers.

That will be useful, I'll look it up after my self-induced sleep-deprived all-nighter on PC building.

I completed the installation and after that I ran a full update check, everything appeared current.
Thanks, I plan to do it again next time.
