Hi, I've almost finished a new build, just waiting for my RX580 to arrive in 1-2 days.

I have an old NVIDIA card laying around, and I'm eager and itching to use it to install the os and try out my new build.

 

Will I need to do another clean os install after I replace the old card with the new one?

I know replacing without reinstalling the os should work without a problem, but can it cause some conflicts or small issues in the future?

 

What do you think? Am I just being OCD about it?

No, you'll just have to use DDU to remove the drivers, then install AMD ones.
