Hi there! I am doing a new build with a Asus TUF GAMING B650-PLUS WIFI.
I wanted to put these 3 together:
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
G.skill Trident Z5 Neo RGP 32 (x2) DDR5 6000 CL30
Asus TUF GAMING B650-PLUS WIFI
So I heard that that the 7800x3d have had problems with voltages, and that I should update the bios asap, so I was going to use a flash drive once I got to the bios, before installing windows 11.
It says that the newer bios should have the latest chipset driver installed beforehand though, but that is recommended for windows 11 to be installed first.
I am wondering which I should do first, if the bios update is needed but the chipset driver is recommended first before the bios update.
What should I do?

Been a Ryzen owner since 1000 series, only skipped owning 7000 series and only used ASUS motherboards.
I would apply latest BIOS using flashback, once in OS apply the latest chipset drivers.
