Install windows or wait

[Minibiker]

Hi all

Built my Ryzen system last night but i still havent got a GPU to put in, Is it best to wait and fit GPU before installing windows or does it not make any difference.

Thank you

Don`t you need a gfx card to even see the bios/install screen?

Dont know lol doesnt ryzen have integrated GPU?

Not 100% my self but I `think` that there is no onboard gfx with Ryzen(Might have misread that somewhere )
Maybe plug it in and see if you get into Bios?

Ryzen has no iGPU, only the APU series which is why the motherboards have display outputs.

Just install it, if you get image. It's not going to do any harm...

Nope. The display ports on the motherboard is only used if you have an APU installed. Ryzen has no IGP and the motherboard doesn't either so they pretty much do nothing.

So I'll have to wait until I get the GPU fitted... may purchase a 1050ti for now then
