I just finished building my PC two days ago with components like a 9070XT graphics card, a 9600X processor, and a Gigabyte B650 AX V2 motherboard. I've updated the BIOS through Q-Flash and installed the GPU drivers, but I've come across something called "chipset drivers." I'm not exactly sure what those are or if they're necessary for my setup. Are they related to the motherboard or the GPU? Is there anything else I should consider updating or downloading?

The chipset drivers are specifically for your motherboard. Since you have a B650 motherboard, those drivers are essential for ensuring everything runs smoothly. They help the various components of your motherboard communicate effectively.
Your motherboard has a chipset that controls various functions, and it's usually located at the bottom right corner of the board. Installing the chipset drivers is important to make sure all features and connectivity work as intended.
Got it! So I should definitely grab the drivers from Gigabyte's site instead of AMD, right?
