Package Includes:
- AMD Chipset Drivers
- AMD Ryzen™ Power Plans (required for UEFI CPPC2 in Windows® 10 May 2019 Update)
Windows OS automatically installs a generic driver that allows computers to recognize basic motherboard functions. However, to make use of all board components, appropriate chipset drivers must be applied.
If you install this package, the system will receive related information regarding the chipset. Also, this step might improve compatibility and bus transfer speeds, add various changes for sleep state behavior, power saving functionality and others, or include support for new features. To apply this release, simply make sure your system configuration is supported by this package, get the file, run the available setup, and follow the on-screen instructions. Bear in mind that installing inappropriate chipset drivers can cause computers to malfunction. In addition to that, do perform a system restart after you have completely applied the present release so that all changes take effect. Despite the off-chance that other OSes might be compatible, we do not recommend installing any software on platforms other than the highlighted ones.
Change Info:
Release Highlights Installer displays more descriptive messages in case of errors and installation failures Fixed Issues Driver uninstall fails if the Windows user accounts for install and uninstall are different Resolved condition where GPIO driver may not upgrade from previous chipset driver version Known Issues Installer may fail to launch if executed from a folder name with non-Latin language Workaround: Execute the installer from C:\AMD Manual system restart required for Windows® systems configured with Non-English OS Pack Windows Installer pop-up message may appear during install Moving installer window during install process may cause installer window to flicker/move around the screen Cannot open installation log file after completion. Please refer to https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/2564571/error-opening-installation-log-file-verify-that-the-specified-location Installer may not downgrade to older version Workaround: Manually uninstall latest package from control panel and then install older package

That's a very nice UI interface... very slick....
But one thing, I wish it showed what version of each thing you currently have so you know how much of an upgrade you are doing.
Only way you can doing it is by looking at release notes for current and previuos drivers and compare both. You are right, it is a pain in the arse and could be much easier, hopefully AMD will do something about it...

This might be a stupid question but can I use this with a B550A board?
Specifically I am running an Alienware Aurora R10 with a 3900X.
Dell just pushed a new chipset driver a couple of days ago but in the release note it states that it is only for Win10 pre 1909 versions and that the 1909 update covers it (Which I always thought Win10 included chipset drivers are just basic?)

Don't see anything available for B550 at the moment.

The v2.05.04.352 includes new B550 AGESA v2 firmware for 3000 series and up, not sure if
That one was for Asrock only, no idea why it’s version is so high. I checked the drivers,
v2.04.28.626
and v2.05.04.352 are identical except for the version number of the chipset driver itself. Pretty interesting.The v2.05.04.352 includes new B550 AGESA v2 firmware for 3000 series and up, not sure if
v2.04.28.626
includes it.6 pages 1 2 3 4 5 6

The MEI I suppose and whatever that little thing includes as a mix between hardware, bios firmware and software through the driver and install package.
Chipset driver itself should just be a nothing thing just a log file of what it did and it mostly does very little although it could have changed in newer devices compared to when it was just a bunch of INF files for device naming purposes.
Then there's the network driver which yeah it contains a bunch of stuff if installed in full ranging from helper software to power shell scripts if you don't just use the device driver.
Suppose on compatible systems you would also have the raid drivers and if these might include some control panel or otherwise and on compatible CPU models there's the iGPU driver which yeah same as AMD and NVIDIA you probably get a bunch of running services and processes that I assume can also be slimmed down with minimal loss of core functionality.
