[QUOTE="Thirio, post: 797523, member: 59876"] In my experience windows does not provide all the drivers automatically. They only provide the bare minimum outdated drivers to get you up and running. They never install the on-board audio driver for my motherboard I have to go searching for it to get good sound on my headphones. The chipset drivers are also more than a year old and so are the graphics drivers. I play FPS games where a bad driver could mean the difference of 100 fps or 150 fps and I can tell you first hand that the drivers windows provides give you worse performance than the manufacturer drivers.
