Howdy, I'm going to be upgrading my graphics card and I know that it will fit in my case and that my power supply can support it. However, I'm just wondering what I should do about the graphics drivers. Will I just have to put the new card in and install them or will I have to do something with the old drivers first? Both cards are NVIDIA cards and I have Geforce Experience for my drivers.

You can just download the latest or which driver you want to use. 

Just perform a clean install once the new card is in. 

 

You dont have to do anything prior. Just swap them. 

 

You can go all out and use display driver uninstaller first then swap the card then install the driver fresh. 

 

Results will be the same.
