Question QUESTION ABOUT DRIVERS

[um4yr]

Hi, when you build a pc I know that you have to download drivers from each components website. When I see videos they only download specific drivers. Is there anything wrong with downloading every latest driver if you don't know what some of them are?

Thank You

Chipset, storage, lan, usb, audio and graphics are the main drivers. Depending how modern the OS is, may only need a few of those.

If hardware is never than the OS, lan, storage and usb would be recommended installing. Chipset is mostly always, so Windows correctly recognises motherboard chipsets and their functions.

Audio and graphics can get drivers direct from the vendor. Ie, Amd for RX, Nvidia/Geforce for their graphics cards. Audio, if Realtek can get more regular updated drivers from them.
