How to know which driver is right for SM Bus Controller?

Question

I'm having a problem with the SM Bus controller. it appears with an explanation mark in Device manager. I would install the driver manually but i'm not sure which is the right one. I don't know what device is that actually. How can i know? It seems like it's a known problem but i didn't find a good answer for my question. I'm using Windows 8.1 64-bit:

Gigabyte Z97-d3h MoBo.

Intel CPU 4790k.

Kingston HyperX 16GB RAM.

MSI gtx970 4G GPU.

Kingston 3TB HDD.

Samsung Evo 250GB SSD.

EVGA 650W Gold PSU.

Intel Management Engine Interface is important for managing your components, overclocking and Intel Rapid Storage Technology is important for optimal performance of SSD and RAID. – Johny547 Aug 14 '15 at 11:55
