hi, im installing a new i7 3770 and i currently have a gtx 660. my question or concern rather is, when i install my new chip what happens to the integrated graphics since i have a 660? obviously i have the intel graphics driver disabled since im using nvidia . im just wondering if a problem may occur
 
Solution
The proper way to do it would be to remove the 660 and install the 760 using the included install cd. Then update the drivers.
No , there will not be a problem since the integrated graphics is there to use if you don't have or want a separate graphics card. Once you install the separate graphics card it is used instead of the integrated graphics and the integrated graphics is disabled.

oh ok i see and another question while im at and this might seem kinda dumb... i just downloaded the new nvidia r331 drivers and i currently have a gtx 660, and my question is hypothetically if i were to upgrade to a gtx 760 (both nvidia) do i have to re install those drivers again for the 760 or would i just have to swap the two and have the 760 work fine?
