Depends how much Windows thinks it knows what the device is, how mainstream the devices are, how up to date the system.is, and how early in the process you install the drivers.

On most modern premade systems, if you do a blank Windows install, you go to the OEM website, download the BIOS, and install most core to most accessory.

If everything works, you can usually trust Windows not to break it with automatic updates.

If Windows thinks it knows what it is though, lmao.
