Should I install SMBus driver?

I did a google search. I'm kind of clueless.

part of your chipset... if you haven't installed your chipset drivers, you definitely should

SMBus = system management bus drivers, includes drivers for nforce hypertransport bridge, PCI system management, and PCI-Express root port. You should install these.

Yes, from my experience.

It is one of the first drivers that I install and it seems to help out quite a bit on a clean install.
Not entirely sure what it does but is good nonetheless.
