Hello members of ROG !!! My system build: i7 7700k+maximus hero IX+ m.2 samsung 960 evo+ 16 GB Corsair Vengance LPX@3000+ msi gtx 980
Sorry about my stupid question and terrible english, but

can anyone tell me in which order i must install drivers after clean OS installing ? ( im plug out internet cable and installing all drivers by myself)
For example how i`m doin it:
1.Chipset
2.MEI
3. Video (gtx 980)
4.Sound
5.LAN
6.SATA
7. m.2 SSD driver (samsung 960 evo)

...after all of this i`m check upgrades for OS. Tell me dudes - I do everything right ? Sorry for my language and THX for
attention !!!

What you have listed is perfect.
The most important is chipset first then MEI. After that it doesn't really matter.

Where do you find the MEI driver? I'm not seeing it under driver support for the Maximus IX Formula. Do you just download this through windows update?

You might need to install Corsair (or other) software for your keyboard/mouse/etc.

And Aura stuff, if you use Aura stuff.

You don't need to install iGPU driver if you're not using iGPU. Or any of the fancy ASUS audio stuff if you just want basic codec functionality.

if you want to be extra safe, restart everytime it tells you to restart (driver install/ update).

(i dunno what else to add)

I usually do BIOS (if needed), then chipset, then IME (if needed), then GPU. Doesn't really matter what you do after chipset. But I absolutely hate working in the ghetto low-res screen modes Windows likes to force by default, lol.
