I read that when I install my GTX 1070 to replace my GTX 1050 Ti, that I will need new drivers. Where do I find the proper drivers? Or will my computer automatically search online?

Whoever said you'll need new drivers is a bit of an idiot since they're in the same damn family of cards. That said, it wouldn't to nuke your current ones with DDU and install the latest from Nvidia's site.
