Hello, your order for an NVMe will arrive first. I plan to install fresh Windows and work with the system until I receive the CPU, which is a Ryzen 7 3700X. Once it arrives, what should I do? I’m confident I won’t need to reinstall Windows or build the PC myself. I’ve upgraded CPUs before without needing a BIOS update—anything else I should prepare? What steps are required before installing the Ryzen 7 3700X?

Your system's mainboard could be a good fit if it handles eight processing units and sixteen threads, as performance depends on the specific model.

Most B450 models can manage a 3700x, and it seems they deliver comparable power at 2600x. If the aircraft is an A320 or B350, that could be a concern.

Typically, most B350 models can also accommodate a standard 3700X.
