Installing OS and drivers without optical drive?

[sprouze]

So I wanted to buy a Phanteks Enthoo Pro, but unfortunately I can't get it, so I looked at the NZXT s340 case which have everything I need, except an optical drive slot. I know that I can install the OS with a USB drive, but what about the GPU drivers that will be included with my 980 Ti?

download the drivers from the Nvidia website

Just download the drivers on a USB beforehand or at least the LAN driver.

Drivers which are delivered with the hardware are in 99% of all cases outdated and shouldn't be installed at all.

Download the drivers you need, if no Lan driver was installed by the OS, get it from a friend or other PC and install it from an USB thumb drive.
