    [SOLVED] i3-12100/RTX 3060 ti combo?

    Free driver update software?

    Hi guys. Do any of you know of a free driver update software that does the same kind of thing as Driver Genius? My Computer is being serviced so i'm reduced to using an old webbook from years ago. It would probably really benefit from a driver update. Thanks,
