As for the cpu drivers, there is an option in the device manager under 'processors' that allows you to update the driver. I can't seem to find any info from Intel or any other place that I've found so far that provides information on how/where to find said processor packs or whether there are options for extending the cpu instruction set, other than upgrading the cpu itself.
