14 DAY TRIAL // As the producer has announced, MSI has added a new model to its X99 Gaming motherboards family, namely the X99A TOMAHAWK, which should be more than ready for upcoming blockbusters.
In terms of drivers, the aforementioned device benefits from Chipset, Management Engine (ME), and Rapid Storage Technology (RST) drivers provided by Intel, as well as from a High Definition Audio package developed by Realtek.
Moreover, owners will also be able to make use of Intel’s Ethernet Adapter package to enable the network card, as well as USB 3.0 and 3.1 drivers for all available configurations (VIA, Intel, and ASMedia chipsets).
In addition to that, the motherboard supports Multi-GPU configurations. Therefore, you must install additional HD Graphics packages directly from Intel (for the CPU) and NVIDIA/AMD (for the dedicated video card) after the hardware is mounted.
As for compatibility, the board, as well as its drivers, supports both 32- and 64-bit variants of Microsoft’s Windows 7, 8, 8.1, and 10 operating systems. Do not try installing the files on other OSes, as this might lead to malfunctions.
Last but not least, after installing all drivers for your specific configuration, make sure to perform a reboot to allow all changes to take effect properly. If this isn’t requested automatically, it would be a good idea to carry it out manually.
With this in mind, if you own or intend to buy such a device, download drivers for MSI X99A TOMAHAWK, apply them, and constantly check our website to be aware when newer drivers are available.
