Wakirimas Brethren,

Going to build my new rig next week and wanted to know the proper/best sequence for installing software. I will have an ASUS Sabertooth R2 Mobo and FX-6300 CPU with an GeForce 560TI GPU.

What is the best sequence of software install? I have read you should get Windows 7 fully installed first. Others say no you need to load Windows first but then flash the BIOS ii required. Some say install drivers first.

Things are much more complex now than they were on my last build. Apparently install sequence can have an impact on whether you run trouble free or not.

Any advice is appreciated.

Sincerely.

Welcome to the forums I would say follow what Paul at Newegg did, that's how i did mine and it turned perfect! But if by chance you have a SSD to install your things to change the setting in the Bios. To AHCI before you install any programs or OS ETC. AJ. :thup: :)
