Where are the drivers for Z390?

The same as Z370.
Actually it should read 300 series drivers, but intel like most large corporations, might miss changing every info paper.

Agree with Cliff S. Also, if you look under "Other Versions" on Intel's site you'll see the 8213 drivers are the same as those provided by Gigabyte, but the intel notes don't list the Z390 board there as well.

Anyway I just installed these on my Z390 Gigabyte board and all is good here.

Peace

should i install drivers from intel or asus?

Intel would be the latest most likely, as OEMs pretty much stop updating after the next two generations of CPU.

Chipset drivers are not "drivers", but put simply, a list of human readable hardware names for anything that can connect to the chipset, PCIe, USB fans and so on.

Yeah, they're not actually "drivers" but kind of function that way

Anyway... Overview of INF Files

An INF file is a text file that contains all the information that device installation components used to install a driver.

They're basically instructions for the proper operation of the chipset components of the board...

The Intel(R) Chipset Device Software installs Windows* INF files to the target system. These files outline to the operating system how to configure the Intel(R) chipset components in order to ensure that the following feature functions properly:

Peace

I need not install drivers, so I have left the exclamation marks there.

I'm a bit obsessive about keeping my Device manager clean and complaint free so I'd have to fix that
