Making a Windows 10 Media Creation Tool USB, I was also told to download the motherboard Drivers on the USB as well among other things.

Specs: Ryzen 1700/ASUS X370 PRO Motherboard/GTX 1070 GPU.

Which drivers/updates do I have to install? I know where the GTx 1070/Nvidia one is.. but there are like 29 options for the X370 Pro motherboard?

For the Motherboard Drivers/Updates there are categories for "BIOS, Audio, Chipset, USB, LAN" etc.. Do you just download the latest released version? Or do you download all of them?

My instincts say the latest one, but I'm out of my element.

Thanks!

Windows usually downloads the drivers, just be sure the MOBO has the win ten drivers.

Yes, just download the latest drivers. There shouldn't be more than one or two options for the most part anyway considering the motherboard is brand new.

Chipset, Audio, Sata, LAN, and USB drivers are the ones you need. You don't need to update the BIOS if you don't want to.

It just gives me a folder in my downloads, do you have to extract them and do all of that jam? I'm really in a grey area here
