Tips on transitioning from Nvidia GPUs to AMD Radeon GPUs

Gabby Cashew · November 3, 2021

Hi!

I built a computer system back in May with an i5-11400, Palit GTX 1650, and 16 GB (2x8) DDR4 3200. Yesterday, I finally got the budget to upgrade to an MSI Radeon RX 6600 XT Mech 2x OC.

Any tips or things I have to take note of while using the GPU, as well as AMD's Radeon Software?

Looking forward to all of your responses!

When switching GPU brands, you should DDU the old drivers before installing the new, otherwise there can be conflicts and problems as a result.

thanks for this! I also checked some guides on how to use it, so I'm guessing AMD's the only GPU driver installed now
