About the graphics driver:

While installing the graphics driver allows the system to correctly identify the chipset and graphics card manufacturer, updating the graphics driver brings various changes.

It can improve the overall graphics experience and performance of games or various engineering software applications, including support for newly developed technologies, increasing compatibility with new GPU chipsets, or addressing different issues that may be encountered.

The installation steps should be a breeze when applying this release, as every manufacturer has tried to make them as simple as possible so that every user can update the GPU themselves with minimal risk (however, check to see if the download supports your graphics chipset ).

So grab the package (unzip it if necessary), run the installer, follow the on-screen instructions for a complete and successful installation, and make sure to reboot the system for the changes to take effect.
