Hey there! I’m expecting the new MSI B560m PRO-VDH MATX board and moving my i7-10700k to it. I’m a bit concerned about driver compatibility and whether I need to reinstall Windows. Any tips to avoid any issues? Thanks ahead!

It’s not necessary to make any changes to the software, do you want to know why you’re replacing the motherboards?

Switching to a compact setup required a reduced motherboard. Transitioning from ATX to mATX

No problem, it should function. You'll miss the option to boost performance if you do.

They maintained XMP since Intel understood the necessity of b560 for that specific requirement

Typically, remove the chipset drivers prior to swapping. The remaining components should generally work fine, except for the Lan driver and similar items. Most other parts should install automatically on the first post.
