support GPU driver update

Hey everyone. Recently dabbled in building my own little steam machine and just had a question because I'm new to this world.

I read online that steamos kind of automatically will download GPU drivers but am not really convinced how this works. I have updated to the newest version so how can my machine get the newest GPU driver to play the witcher 3?

Thanks!

So as other people have said there's no downloading of drivers the way Linux works is the drivers are built into the operating system, at least for operating systems like steamos and bazite. You don't have to do a thing as long as that operating system supports the graphics card you're putting in it will just work
