Hey, I came across one of the many questions which might be hard to answer for a regular person, and everyone seems to have an opinion on, with or without any actual proof. I have recently bought a new laptop, however, the pre-loaded software was quite out of date. The updating process took multiple hours and even week later I found out that some drivers and things are not up to date. Now the dilemma is: Should I use the manufacturer (OEM, Lenovo in my case) provided drivers, or rather update to newer stock drivers (right now its Intel)? Is there any performance difference or are you loosing system stability or features?
With my old laptop Dell XPS 13 9360, I was forced to use the stock Intel drivers, because the Dell provided ones were so out of date that the newer win 10 versions broke the display brightness control. Stock Intel drivers solved this issue, however, it might just have been an unlucky generation of XPS 13s... (the issue was quite wide spread)
It would be great to see a video made about this topic. :) Keep up the great work!
