New GPU install! :D

[Joey96]

Hello guys!

 

So I just received my new GTX 1070 (yay :D) But now I don't really know what to do with the software, am I supposed to uninstall the drivers of my old GPU? Where would I do that?  And then install the new one on their website or through Nvidia Experience? And if I do uninstall the drivers of my old GPU, won't my screen go black if my CPU don't have integrated graphics?

 

Thanks guys!

Use This link http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html (DDU to remove all old drivers)

Then download the drivers from Nvidia's website:

no, you'll have to memorize the patterns and keyboard shortcuts to make sure you can do it blindfolded

No, currently I still have my old 960 inside my rig. So I should just choose the "Clean and Shutdown, then put my new GPU in at it should work?

If you uninstall the driver, your card will still display output using the windows built in driver.  But it will only display in low resolution safe mode.
