Intel released version 10.1.1.42 of their Chipset Device Software on January 17, 2017.
This is the latest version of these drivers and should work with most newer Intel-based motherboards.
Intel's INF updates are not drivers in the most technical sense, but are instead updates to important files that tell Windows how to use Intel integrated hardware. However, we usually still refer to them as drivers.
See What Version of This Driver Do I Have Installed? if you're not sure which Intel Chipset driver version you have installed.
Changes in Intel Chipset Drivers v10.1.1.42
This update resolves an issue related to an incorrect version number, plus adds support for a few new devices.

Having Trouble With These New Intel Chipset Drivers?
If something breaks after installing these chipset drivers, your best first step is to uninstall and then reinstall them. You can do this from the appropriate applet in Control Panel.
If reinstalling the Intel chipset driver package doesn't work, try rolling back the driver, also something you can do from Control Panel. See How to Roll Back a Driver for instructions in all versions of Windows.
