Hey So i recently built together a new computer. The case Corsair Crystal Series 570x doesn't support optical drives so i didnt get one. My motherboard came with all of the drivers on a CD and im not sure which drivers I absolutely need to install and which ones I dont need to. There are a ton of Drivers and utility drivers as well. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

The motherboard is the z370 Aorus Gaming 7 and here is a link to the manufacturers Drivers http://www.gigabyte.us/Motherboard/Z370-AORUS-Gaming-7-rev-10#support-dl

you should be able to download all the drivers you need from their website, copy it to a USB

Installing Windows 10 should provide enough to boot the machine.
Minimally you will probably need Ethernet if the device is non standard
Windows should install most of what it needs once it get on the internet.

I guess i should have explained that i understand how to install the LAN driver through a USB. There are a ton of drivers and im not sure exactly which ones i would need or not need to run the computer. I can install all of them but I dont want to waste time to install ones i would never need

I would get the Latest AUDIO, LAN and perhaps the Intel stuff (although they really arent necessary). Windows should be able to take care of the USB and other drivers without issue automatically. Also you may have to download the RGB and board specific utility apps if you want to control that.

BTW Windows during installation may install an appropriate LAN driver and you might be good to go without having to use a USB.

Oh okay thanks for that. Yeah I'm not sure so I went ahead and downloaded the BigfootLan Driver anyway just in case. It's built completely except I'm just waiting for the processor to come in the mail on Tuesday. Thanks for your help
