Hello,
I’m planning on building a PC in the next couple of days, but I wanted to research everything first. After doing all the research regarding parts, I now am onto the software tenet of my build. I am aware that you need to download drivers for everything to communicate and work properly, and I know where to find the drivers for my motherboard.
Currently I am planning on getting the MSI - Z370 SLI PLUS motherboard. I’ve gone to its respective website, gone to support, and have loooked at all the drivers that there is to install. I know I will need the Chipset, Audio Drivers, and LAN Driver (I am getting a graphics card, so no need for a VGA driver). Do I need the PIDE/SATA Drivers? I do not plan on using a RAID configuration.
Second, for each driver type, there are a bunch of different installation prompts. If you go to the website, you will see that each driver has multiple download. Which versions should I get, looking at the audio drivers there are two different downloads, and for the PIDE/SATA drivers there are many different downloads...?
