Drivers I know I need:
LINK

Audio
-Realtek HD Audio Driver
-Creative SB X-Fi driver

Chipset
-Intel Management Engine Interface
-Intel INF installation

LAN
-BigFoot LAN driver

-GTX 770 from Nvidia website driver

Not sure if I need it or not:

So my question is:
What drivers that i'm not sure about do i need?

Any drivers that I left out that are important?

What special utilities will i need for overclocking?

I cant find a USB 3.0 driver. Do i need one?

if your using windows 8.1 go into windows update and check for updates. windows 8 is famous for having outstanding drive updates through windows update. only on thing go to nvidia's website and get the nvidia drivers for the gpu
