No that will create the problems. Remove http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/GPU57RemoveOldGraphicsDrivers.aspx and clean http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

 

Until your system is just in VGA mode. Then install new board.

A film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.

Thanks Rik.  I will be sure to do that.

 

I presume the usual procedure is install new one first, then uninstall old drivers?

 

I think I will go with the base model rather than the TI.  Didn't see really any comments here though I've read it is about 17% faster in some other reviews.

 

Do most of you consider this to be a significant jump from my current Radeon card?  I'm hoping to see better video processing.

 

Thanks,


Eric

be sure to delete all the amd drivers when you install the Nvidia cards, they'll wreak havoc with the creative suite if both are still installed

Hello,

 

Someone had recommended this card for me a while back and I am about to buy it but I see a few variants and wondering which is recommended.  They range from high $400s to nearly $700.

 

 

 

Appreciate the advice.  They all seem to have PCI 3.0 so I should be in good shape for my board.

 

Thanks,
Eric
