My Asus Prime Deluxe II offers the Intel XTU app on Asus' driver page, but there's a newer version from Intel. Any reason why I should use one or the other in this specific case?

Thanks in advance for any advice/info.

i do know that the intel xtu from ASUS is customized, hence if there are no upsides for such customization, then i dont see a problem.. i personally do not install any generic driver/software from other vendors than ASUS offered ones (even if newer) due to obvious testing, signups and customization.
