Basically I was planning on updating to windows 10 with a clean installation on a brand new SSD but I've came across a problem were I completely forgot I need to download the motherboard drivers on a USB stick as I don't have the original disk. I've looked on the gigabyte motherboard page under the drivers category for my model and windows 10 has only two drivers named: "Intel Management Engine Interface" and "Intel INF installation".

Under the windows 7 64 bit (which I'm currently using) the motherboard drivers seem to have a lot more drivers including LAN drivers, USB 3.0 etc which is quite concerning. Would really appreciate the much needed help of what drivers I need to download when performing a clean installation of windows 10 64 bit (if that's even possible).

Link to the manufacter page/ motherboard drivers (The motherboard is Rev 2.0): http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4015#dl



Current specs:

CPU: i7 3770k @ 3.50GHz
GPU: Sapphire 7950 3GB Overclock Edition (Upgrading to a 390x)
RAM: Vengeance 16GB DDR3 @1600Mhz
PSU: Corsair Builder Series CX 750W V2 80 Plus Bronze
MOTHERBOARD: Gigabyte GA-Z68AP-D3
HDD: 1TB Western Digital 7200rpm (Upgrading to a ssd but formatting this hdd for storage)

Hey Jake,

I'm about to do the same exact thing, clean install of Windows 10 on this same motherboard. How did things turn out for you? Did you need to download and install new drivers?
