Hello, welcome to the world of computer building! I'm here to help with your driver installation questions. For AMD CPUs like the 5800X, you'll typically need chipset and GPU drivers from AMD directly. Check the AMD RAID Installer, AMD RAID Driver, or StoreMI pages for the right files. On ASUS motherboards, when you view downloads under a model, they often show older versions with bigger files—do you need only the newest ones or all available? For additional categories like LAN, Audio, and utilities, it's usually best to install each relevant driver as listed, in the order recommended by the manufacturer.

No, the boards drivers were not automatically installed with Windows.

It's accurate. Most people accept this as correct, especially when using a dedicated graphics card.

I believed they needed manual setup once Windows handled the installation. Actually, Windows installs just the essential drivers.

Many driver installations remain outdated for several months or even years. It's best to ensure you're using the latest versions directly from the manufacturer's website.
