How to update all drivers?

[Benastro]

Hi,
I recently finished building my pc.
Specs:
Intel Core i5 4690K
Corsair Vengeance Pro 8GB
GTX 970 (4GB)NOT 3.5 .. . ..... ..... . . . . . . .
Asus Maximus VII Hero
A DVD drive

I installed all the motherboard drivers followed by the graphics card drivers using the CD's instead of using the web because I didn't have access to internet at the time. Time for the random questions..
1) When I was installing the graphics card drivers I selected " install drivers" I noticed that there is also an option to install Phsyx. Do I have to install that as well or will it be included in the "drivers"
I know in Geforce Experience that my GPU drivers are up to date but will I have to manually install Physx?
2) Should I update my Bios/Chipset/Mobo Drivers? And because I have already installed the ones that came with the mobo (CD) , will installing ones from the internet cause conflict issues??
3) How do I know which drivers to download for my MOBO?
4) Silly question but um..When I move a window around the screen on the desktop on my computer it stutters sometimes..Why o why would this happen/is it normal?
5) How do I control all the fans in my system, all of which are connected to the motherboard?
(How to customise)?
6) How do I check that there is nothing unnecessary running in the background on pc?
7) Do I need an anti-malware as well as anti-virus or can I just use an antivirus?



Thanks a lot!

Is there an application that can update all my drivers? PS(I don't mind paying)

Don't. The only place you should get drivers from is direct from the manufacturer.

1) it will come with nVidia drivers. But there's no harm in installing it to start with.

2) You can get Windows to automatically find and recommend updates - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-au/windows7/automatical...
Or you can go to your motherboard webpage and download latest drivers (the lot) and bios
3) You just do the lot in one go.
4) Can hgappen but shouldn't. Don't move it so fast
5) Use the motherboard utility software. It should be on your driver cd. But again, the latest version should be available for download on your motherboard webpage.
6) If you Ctrl-Alt-Del to Task Manager you can see what processes are running. There'll be heaps. Be sure before you uninstall any.
7) I use Avast (free version) and Malwarebytes (free version). Avast runbs continuously. I have to run a scan occasionally with Malwarebytes.
