Do I need the Bigfoot LAN driver or will default windows drivers be fine?

I am doing a re-install of windows and I'm deciding whether or not I actually need this driver. How important is it that I use the Bigfoot Lan driver as opposed to the plain windows one?

 

Thanks

Im pretty sure i used something like this when i reset my pc. What it did was, since my pc is custum built, it had no bluetooth or wifi or ethernet driver. I used that as a basic driver just so i could install the proper lan driver for my mobo

CPU - i7-4790k

GPU - MSI 980 Ti 

Mobo - MSI Z97 Gaming 5

Memory - 32 GB DDR3

Storage - 3.4 TB

Just use the windows one. A LAN driver is a LAN driver, and there is no performance boost by using one or the other.

My native language is C++
