Drivers updating!


Simple_Spectr
Hello Razer community!
Simple question from Simple Spectr :)
Should I update drivers through Intel support tool or\\and Nvidia Geforce Experience to the latest ones or better to use stock drivers from Razer Support (Device category), old, but stable one? I talk about Razer Blade's systems (Actually my RB - 2018 Advanced model).

Which way is better? Lest discuss it. Hope to get an answer from offical Razer Support!

And also, after updating Windows 10 (to latest one), the F9 recovery disk part cant open (just error when press F9 when system starting)

BTW, I have not deleted the section, if anything.

If you find a driver version that is running well for your system, then you should stick with it unless a game forces you to update. I usually stay 2-3 updates behind when it comes to GPU drivers to be on the safer side. The same goes for everything else.

As for the error you are getting when trying to run the recovery disk, you're highly likely getting this error as version 2004 prevents you from rolling back to a previous version of the OS. Feel free to send me a message if you need anything else.

Well, thank you for feedback! So, now I’m using right driver strategy, I mean :)
Actually yesterday, I started Witcher 3 from Steam and it tells me that I should update Nvidia driver through GeForce Experience, but I ignore this notification because a little scary about drivers updating (now after clean windows install, everything work good), and Witcher works good also (without any drivers updating). But notification still there.

About recovery... Sad, so I can reinstall windows clearly again and delete RazerRec disk part? Or how should I be?

I always disable Gefore Experience notifications since I usually manually download GPU driver updates. You should be able to do the same via the app settings.



Is there a need for you to use Windows Recovery? As for the RazerRec disk partition, I would just let it be since it doesn't really take a lot of space, and you may need it when you want to revert to factory settings in the future.
