These are probably stupid, But answer as many as you can! I'd really appreciate it!

1. I Have Nvidia graphics card, Should I always download and install the latest version of the drivers? I See people saying it could cause issues, Yes I made a restore point just in case.

2. Is there anything I should have downloaded for this PC to run better my rig-
Windows 10
Geforce GTX 950
IntelCore i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70gHz
7.97 RAM
60GHz
1TB hard drive
I downloaded "Geforce experience" and of course an antivirus also CCleaner. Is there anything like this that I should install onto my desktop?

3. Is the steam download worth it, Or should I just use it to purchase games?

4. Kind of similar to question 2. But is there anything I should download to better my experience with a gaming PC such as Steam? Or Teamspeak. Is there anything like this I should download?

5. How often should I open my desktop and clean it?

6. If I were to upgrade my specs, what should I focus on or what should I upgrade first? Also, I have two built in fans, Is that enough?

7. Really dumb question here. For movies, Should I just buy online or will this take up a lot of disk space and slow down my PC? Or should I just get a physical copy to play it on my PC?

8. When watching videos online even when in HD it is kind of still looks fuzzy in a way. I use my 720 HD TV. Would buying a Monitor make the display better? furthermore. Can my rig use two monitors? If so is it easy to set up?

9. I use my PS4 controller to play, I have had this happen about 4 times. It notifies me that the last USB connected was disconnected. I made sure they are connected and It works fine but then out of nowhere it pops up. However, I haven't had this notification since my drivers updated.

Thanks in advance and feel free to tell me anything else you might think of that will help me with my new gaming desktop. I was a console player and all this is new to me. Again thanks for taking to time to read these dumb noob questions 😀.
