Updating Drivers

Should I only use Dell Driver updates or can I use the manufacturers' drivers?  I have drivermax and would like to use it to update drivers but am fearing the unknown if the driver is not distributed by Dell.  I know there are exceptions and item by item issues with driver updates, but what does the conventional wisdom say?  I have a three year old mobo and have not seen Dell offer too many driver updates lately?

 

 

Thanks

    You can use manufacturer's drivers over Dells for most devices. Just never update your bios with a non Dell bios.

    I use vendor drivers on all my hardware.
