I just build my first pc today, i don't have optical drive, so i can't use the DVD that came with it.
Ik i can download everything from asus website, but where should i download it to?

Just download and save the files to a USB stick. Then when you install Windows on the new build put the USB stick in the computer and double click the driver files just like you would to install anything.

The only one you have to do is the ethernet driver and Windows 10 will probably have a generic version that's enough to get your internet working. Once the internet works you can just get the rest from the manufacturers site.

so it will basically be like downloading a software, after i get ethernet, and install windows, download the other drivers and click on it then it will have installation instructions?

Yes. Windows will have a generic driver to make most hardware work. Asus will have the latest drivers on their site. So even if something is working you want to install the latest drivers off the manufacturers site.
