Which Chipset Driver to pick from Gigabyte Driver Page

[May-Day]

Hello,

 

after clean installing windows 11 via MediaCreationTool I randomly run into AMD Driver Crashes when playing Warzone. I am playing on the same settings as before I had reinstalled win11.

I read that this may be due to missing chipset drivers, so I headed to Gigabyte motherboard driver page. I dont know which Drivers to pick from (dozens chipset drivers), but which one is the "real" one, everyone is speaking about regarding to GPU Driver crashes.

 

Gigabyte Drivers for my MoBo: https://www.gigabyte.com/de/Motherboard/Z690-GAMING-X-DDR4-rev-10/support#support-dl-driver-chipset

 

1) Which Chipset Driver is the correct one?

2) Which Drivers do I have to install manually after Win11 reinstall, in general?

 

I didnt install any Drivers manually after the windows 11 reinstallation, except the adrenaline driver.

 

My system:

Win11

RX 7900 XT

i5 13600K(not overclocked)

2x 16GB 3200MHz CL16

Gigabyte z690 Gaming X DDR4 1.0

[191x7]

All the latest version of the different ones. And the latest Bios.

I updated my BIOS to F29 now (newest for my MoBo). First I thought I crashed something because it rebooted 7 times without any screen output.

After that I tried to activate XMP Profile 1, but I ran into constant blackscreen.

 

Now I left XMP disabled for now and update all chipset drivers from the homepage.

 

But do I also need to update all audio drivers? Realtek HD Audio Driver for DCH  or Realtek HD Audio Driver?

Do I also need SATA RAID Driver e.g Intel Rapid Storage Technology?

Under the utility tab there seems nothing useful right?

 

thanks

I've always found manufacturers drivers a bit cumbersome since they show every driver they ever made usually. You could use the gigabyte download center since that will just update everything for you.

 

Or a mix between using that. Intel's update assistant, and Snappy driver origin (sdio) which will catch all non installed drivers by pid and vid. I personally use sdio at work all the time after having to do a complete reinstall of windows on laptops because I don't have the time to source drivers for random laptops. I wouldn't use it to update anything already installed though unless a specific driver is causing issues then you can use it to install some alternative version

 

But saying that Intel's update assistant will complain about some things like graphics drivers from oems and losing some features. But I've never found a solid answer as to what customisations gigabyte or Asus would make to such drivers and eventually they end up just recommending installing directly from intel anyway

Do I have to roll back my Bios? On F22 XMP worked fine, and now after updating to F29 XMP wont let windows boot..
