    I would've asked for three or four runs, and get an average of benches on one driver over the other. From past experience with AS SSD, I may see scores within 30- 40 pts of each other depending on the run due to the randomness of the operations generated during a bench.

    you wanna make sure you always get the latest drivers from here, there GT73 uses the same drivers from the GT75 except the GT75 uses the Aqua LAN Driver whereas the GT73 doesn't, rest everything is the same:

    MSI GT75 TITAN Drivers

    Usually stick with Manufacturer provided IRST if you want optimal performance if your IRST RAID ROM isn't updated. Once its updated to newer version through BIOS you can try generic SetupRST.exe from Intel with no difference whatsoever.
    Please before and after speed test of new IRST driver.
