I have the NZXT H440 case which does not have any 5.25". This means I cannot install any drivers on discs. I know that it's possible to get drivers from the internet also.

I'm hoping to upgrade my H87 board to a Z97 one. This will mean I need new drivers for the new motherboard. Since there are no 5.25" bays I can't use a disc drive and since it will have no drivers I won't be able to access the internet. Is there a way to overcome this problem. Please help!
 
Solution
Choose the Z97 board you are getting, download all the required software and drivers from the manufacturer's website and store them on a removable usb device.

You will also have to make a bootable Windows installer USB device for your version of Windows if you want a fresh Windows install. Unless you are just going to reuse the internal boot drive without formatting it.
