Drivers

I just got a gaming computer and from what I hear it seems like you have to update your graphics card's drivers pretty often. Exactly how often am I supposed to update?

drivers only come out every so often, so update when they come out..if you arent going to follow it to see when they come out, then just update every other month i guess

Healing hands of God have mercy on our unclean souls
once again. Jesus Christ, Light of the World, burning
bright within our hearts forever. Freedom means love
without condition, without beginning or an end. Here's
my heart, let it be forever Yours, only You can make
every new day seem so new.

There are programs that automaticly update your drivers and games with patches, though some cost money.

Just download an update whenever it comes out. I don't know for sure, but windows update might do that for you. Sometimes the company will install a little program on your computer that checks it, I think.
