Hi. I purchaded a Gigabyte 670 Windforce today, Swapping from a gtx 580 on drivers 301.42, Is it as simple as swap them strait over or do I need to do any reinstallation of drivers?
Thanks

update to latest driver, then just swap the card. you will be fine.
As above, enjoy the new card![]()
Sure I'll swap you Bass for Hormuz.![]()
Society's to blame,
Or possibly Atari.
I swapped them strait over and the driver wouldn't load, No problem aftering reinstalling drivers though.
I was thinking it wouldnt really be an upgrade but I was wrong, It's quicker and a **** load cooler and quieter
cheers
Ye same thing happened when i switched from a gtx 560 ti to a 580. Had to reinstall the driver cos it didn't load.
you need to install the latest drivers after you have put in the GFX.
Yeah, a simple driver update once you fit the new card should suffice =)
Yep, definately would update driver - would never just straight swap without changing driver.
I believe the Nvidia drivers have an option for 'perform clean installation' which should do the trick. Shouldn't need to run any driver cleaners etc.
