[SOLVED] Can i or should i update my graphics driver?

[TaseenIqbal]

When i run a test on https://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri i always have one problem saying my graphics driver is 270 months old. I probably get everything ok, just that problem persists.

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) 15-6200U CPU @ 2.30GHz , ~2.7GHz
GPU:Intel(R) HD Graphics 520
RAM :8 GB
Windows 10 Home Single language 64 bit

It seems that my graphics driver is too old but intel driver and support assistant would not detect any update for me. This third party software called Driver Easy detected an update but i thought it was better if i consulted someone. I do not if i have a Legacy driver because the update i am getting says for DCH driver.

Version i have: 24.20.100.6344
Update i am getting: 26.20.100.7463

PLEASE HELP!!

Ignore sites like that and 3rd party driver update programs. Only update drivers if you're having problems and only from official places, ie, Intel.

Btw, remove your email address, you're open to abuse from bots and whoever else, same goes for any forum. If people help, we'll respond here in your thread.

You should but it's not so necessary

Thanks but it is getting long in the tooth.

Drivers you can get from the laptop's manufacturer's website including HD graphics. What laptop do you have?

Additionally, Intel may provide more recent drivers. https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/88355/Intel-HD-Graphics-520

Fundamentally, if not having issues, don't worry about it.
