Do I need amd drivers for cpu if Im using Nvidia gpu

I am getting a Ryzen 7950x and a X670-e Motherboard. I am pairing it with an Nvidia RTX 4060 Super. Will I need to install the AMD Adrenaline drivers for the CPU and motherboard chipset? Or will the AMD drivers conflict with the Nvidia drivers?

You'll need the chipset drivers but you don't need the Adrenalin software. You can use Ryzen Master if you want to tweak CPU settings.

chipset driver definitely...graphics not essential.
If you need/want to use the iGPU, the Ryzen will also necessarily work with the standard Windows drivers (720p)....yes, the graphics drivers can, but don't necessarily have to, come into conflict with the Nvidia drivers.

Where do I get the Chipset drivers if I do not use the Adrenaline software?
