Motherboard Drivers/ASUS P8Z77-I Deluxe LGA

[Odigo]

I have a question for everyone. When installing drivers for a new motherboard fresh install, does everyone just download the driver/s from the mobo web site or go to the manufactures web site (Intel, Realtek, erc) and download the latest? For thing such as audio drivers are they customized?

I just ordered a ASUS P8Z77-I Deluxe LGA and I'm not sure if I should go with audio drivers and intel drivers from there respected sites or just get the old stuff from the asus site.

Get them from the other manufacturers. Compare the driver version (and build date) and use the latest. In some rare cases the driver may be newer from the board manufacturer. Alternatively, you can check out Station-Drivers. That is where I find out about new driver updates.

Seems like every one is usually out of date in my experience.
