So I just installed windows 10 on my first ever build, and I know i need to install drivers, i'm just not sure exactly everything I need. I know i need drivers for things like my graphics card, different ports on my motherboard and front panel connectors, my disc drive, maybe more? I also know I need to get them from the manufacturer website and not the CD that came with the products because those are usually out of date. Here is my build if that helps:

Cpu: Intel i5 6600k
Cooler: Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo
Motherboard: MSI Z170A SLI plus
Gpu: MSI RX480 8gb
Ram: Corsair Vengeance LPX 8×2gb
Storage: Western Digital Blue 1tb 7200rpm
                Samsung 850 Evo 250gb
PSU: EVGA Supernova G2 550W
Case: Corsair 200R
ODD: Asus 24X DVD-WRITER SATA
Monitor: ASUS VG245H 75Hz 1ms 24" 1080p
OS: Windows 10 64-bit

I don't really need to know the exact name and website for each driver I need to install, just generally what kind of thing I need for what part

Thanks!

go to MSI web site for motherboard, look in the utilities section and download MSI Live Update 6. Run it and it will check your motherboard and provide updated drivers. I wouldn't use it to update BIOS but everything else should be safe.

Only other thing you need to worry about then is the GPU drivers
