So I got new rx 570. I was using igpu vega 8 and do I need to change something? Delete old drivers ? How?

since they're both using the same drivers then it's not a big deal, but it's still recommended.

Download DDU and go into safe mode to run the program, but first uninstall your drivers before you do that.

If they use the same drivers, there's no reason to do anything other than install the 570.

 

If I upgraded from my GTX 780 to a GTX 1080, I could just plug and play since they still use the same drivers.

yes i know that, but DDU takes a few seconds, it doesn't hurt

AMD driver is universal i think, you should not reinstall. Try running it, if you have problems then DDU.

So is it really worth it ? I think I will try first without DDU...

Plug it in and just see.. If a GPU needs drivers it will still output to display in order for you to do so. It's not like you'll plug it in, not have display because no drivers, and then have to take it out.

 

Just make sure you change the DP or HDMI to the GPU and don't leave it connected to the Motherboard display connections.
