Hello all, I'm building my first PC and I need a checklist of all the stuff I should configure in BIOS as well as all the drivers I would need. I have my $1124-ish computer set and ready to go but I don't know what the BIOS is like as I'm currently using a Studio XPS 9100 from just over 4 years ago. My PC parts: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Freelance044/saved/x2wH99 I plan on printing this out for reference during construction. Thanks a bunch!

The forum is set up well. I just wonder why they don’t choose the Define R5 instead of the R4.

Only these two are required for all fundamental operations?

Consider placing the drivers and related files on the SSD for faster access, while keeping the HDD for larger storage needs.
