When reinstalling windows, is it best to use the various intel drivers from the asus website or to update the drivers directly from intel?
I.e the chipset drivers, RAID etc.
TIA to any who can advise

Intel management and the intel chipset from R5E drivers page on Asus site is the way I went

Thanks for responding.
That's the way I'm thinking too, since I'm getting iastor errors since my last rebuild which used the intel drivers. Just wondering on others thoughts/opinions.

Ditto. I stick to all the drivers provided in the Asus support of my motherboard.

I stick to Asus' drivers too although some disagree. If it's at Asus' site it has been tested with their hardware. I have tried drivers elsewhere, but it has not worked so well in the past.

Everything off the Support page for the Rampage V Extreme except for the graphics driver. You can get those from NVIDIA or AMD.

Thanks everyone.
Yeah I always get the nvidia drivers off the nvidia site. I've just finished rebuilding using the stock drivers on asus site. I'm glad to see everyone seems to think as I was originally wondering. Stick with the asus approved drivers. All is well, even on the new bios, still kept all my overclocks with only minor vcore tweaking.

I usually use everything from ASUS except for the chipset. Haven't had any problems. Any reason not to do this?

I did that once too, also once used the latest rst drivers. Had all sorts of problems with bsod's etc. Atleast the ones that are posted on the site are known and tested to work with this particular board. Just had to rebuild mine, because I used the latest Intel RST drivers at install time (F6), and have had nothing but problems. Did this once before with a maximus V, got the same result. Flaky/unstable.

If you overclock, you wanted as limited number of "other issues" as possible.
Only posed the question to see other peoples view points.
