| 1488872 | 2022-10-14 02:24:00 | System is: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4440 CPU @ 3.10GHz. RAM 8 GB. Nvidia GTX750Ti. Windows10 21H2. OS build 19044.2130. Under optional updates - Driver updates I see that there have been no updates related to Intel since 2016-2017 (System, Ports, Other Hardware etc). On checking the Intel website there is a tool to identify products and update drivers so I'm wondering whether to download it and see what it suggests. I know nothing about how a CPU works so would appreciate some advice. Thanks |

| 1488874 | 2022-10-14 15:37:00 | You could use it but there is likely no need, and if your system is running fine, I wouldn't bother. | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1488875 | 2022-10-14 21:02:00 | windows update only gives microsoft stable versions. but the manufactures can have better performing drivers. i use the intel driver update, that will pick up all intel products, cpu motherboard, networking, hard drives etc. |
