So my 780 ti, has been delivered today!, unfortunately i have to wait a couple hours
before I can bask in it's glory, I've upgrade from my current 660ti, have all the latest drivers,

geforce experience, evga precision x etc, anything i should know/do before installing the card?
Would it be best to reinstall the drivers? or are my newest drivers good enough, also any other

tips and tricks to make my installation easier are much appreiciated!

 

For those wondering, it's EVGA reference design, the reason i decided on a reference design

is i prefer having the cooler blow air out the back of the case rather then blowing it out inside the case,

as i have a fanless case (except for my rad) so blowing it outside the case keeps the internals a little bit more cool.

as you were running a relatively new nvidia card, you should be fine with just updating drivers. Have fun!

helped building up the CPU Overclocking Database and GPU Overclocking Database, check them out ;)

If you have the latest drivers from Nvidia and have a sufficient power supply along with a decent CPU. You should be good to go. There is no easier way then plugging in the card and pressing the power button on your computer. Have fun with your new card!

Thank you!, I've never had a card this new and powerful before!, so I'm super excited!

I'm especially excited to OC, with all the new added features like temp controls

I got the reference because it looks good AND does not heat up my case. Win-Win
