Update Chip-set Drivers or leave as is?
When I did a Windows 10 clean install on my Intel based system some months ago, Windows found and installed drivers for most everything including the P55 chipset. The system is working well but I got curious to see if Intel had any better drivers available then what was installed with the OS. I downloaded and installed the Intel Driver Update Utility and the picture below shows that it found a later version of the Intel chipset driver.
I’m looking for a recommendation as to whether it would be better to stay with my existing driver or to install the one recommended by Intel. One concern I have is that all recommendations are to install chipset drivers before installing other drivers. It’s a little late for that now so I don’t really understand the impact of updating the chipset drivers after all other drivers and apps have been installed.
So the question is: To update the chipset drivers or not to update the chipset drivers?
