Question Should I get chipset drivers from MSI or AMD's website?

I have a B450 Gaming Plus Max with a Ryzen 5 3600 installed, and the SSD runs a clean installation of Windows 11.

There are currently two sources of chipset drivers for this setup:

B450 GAMING PLUS MAX | Motherboard | MSI Global
B450 Drivers & Support | AMD

I installed the ones from AMD's page, as they were more up-to-date; however, with my BIOS being from 2019 and the motherboard listing a version from 2021, I've been wondering if there might be a compatibility issue. For example, I noticed that AMD's drivers make browsers start up slower (specifically due to the automatic proxy setting).

Chipset and GPU drivers are the only ones I updated manually. I don't know if I should update any others, either.
