What Drivers do I need?

[Gurt7]

Just installed my OS, have my CDs for my GPU and MOBO, should I install all the drivers they contain, or pick and chose? Also are any 100% necessary?

Go to your motherboard manufacturer's web site and download the latest LAN, Audio, Chipset drivers from there.
Go to either AMD or NVidia's web site (depending on what GPU you have) and download the latest graphic drivers from there.

While you can use the CDs to install drivers, they are generally outdated and many driver CDs also include possibly useful, but often unnecessary software.

For some reason Im having difficulty finiding out where to download the drivers. Could you link me to the ASrock z97 extreme6 motherboard drivers for windows8.1 64 bit?
