I saw here and there Microsoft boasting that Windows 10 can upgrade drivers automatically. Is that true? I am considering upgrading the driver of my motherboard -- ASUS Prime Z270 Plus. Is the newest driver already installed by Microsoft, or still in Asus's website awaiting me to download? Thanks.

yes windows has the ability to update and install drivers. it can also install drivers for hardware that hasn't had drivers installed yet but it is always recommended to install the drivers from the manufacturers website
