Posted November 8, 2014 Hey guys it's me again. I have a question for you: I am buying either a GTX 970 or a GTX 980 to replace my GTX 560 Ti. I wanted to know what program I'd need to get rid completely of the old drivers in order to avoid any possible conflicts when I'll install the new GPU.

Posted November 8, 2014 You tried GeForce experience? I don't know if that does, but it's to do with drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted November 8, 2014 Just run the built in uninstaller with the driver, via Control Panel.

Posted November 8, 2014 Display Driver Uninstaller. It has superseded Driver Sweeper. Remove the drivers through the control panel then run DDU in safe mode. Worked real good for me so far.

Food for thought --> Be mindful if you have an AMD CPU installed, so is AMD software, which also gets taken with DDU's AMD driver removal. Apart from that one small thing, DDU is the best there is.
