Building a new computer today or tomorrow(depends when one part comes in) and I was looking to download all my drivers and misc programs before hand. But when I went to:

https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-Z170N-Gaming-5-rev-10#support-dl

I noticed so many drivers and there is very little for descriptions to guide me on what is necessary and what isn't. So far I have downloaded:

Realtek Audio
Bluetooth
Wifi
Lan
Thunderbolt
Chipset

There are a bunch of other drivers(some seem to be for a variety of purposes) but I've only ever gotten these 5 mostly.

If you click the link, go to the Utility section of drivers and let me know if any of the downloads ring a bell. I see one for motherboard lights so I'm guessing this stuff isn't necessary, but it'd be nice to know what I'm missing regardless.
 


Yes, I only mention the single item of hardware I was requesting drivers for. I was wondering if anyone has had some experience with the massive amount of misc downloads on the Gigabyte website and found any of the extraneous drivers useful and or cool.
