Like stated above you just need to DDU and then reinstall the drivers fresh new, this is mandatory step whenever you switch graphics cards ^^

Well there are cases where it goes without any issue. I switched from a 770 to a 1080 and back once without any issues whatsoever.

TS. Instead of telling us to proof why the person in the video can and why you can't, I rather you spend the time to uninstall your old driver completely and then install the latest driver and see if it works.

I can't promise you will get the same FPS as someone over the internet. Just too many variables. And it's internet. Someone will tell you they still game on 1080p with a 9800GT and a pentium D. 

 

So, let's do this: When you start a game like CS:GO have in background Windows built in system monitor and GPU z in sensors tab. Game for at least 5 minutes, loading screen does not count. you have to be doing something in game. Not cinematic or any crap. Real games, not synthetics. Take note of FPS, GPU/CPU usage and temperature. Post them here.


We want to know if the GPU and or CPU are being used up to their max (more than 90% is good enough). I know that your former card performed better and bla bla bla. Just follow this steps to provide us information. Without information we are shooting in the dark expecting something to do the trick.

Its most likely it being your old gpu optimized for older cpus

GPU drivers don't become optimized for CPU's. 

 

@willforthebest I'd suggest you use DDU and then reinstall the drivers for your GPU.
