I currently have an alienware x51 with an nvidia gtx 555. Im plaanning on switching my graphics card to an AMD r9 270x.
My question is, what should I do in preparation for switching graphics cards? Is there anything beyond uninstalling my nvidia drivers? Does it matter if the card is made by MSI? Also, what are some things I should consider while switching out my gpu? I have never really messed with my computer so any specific tips would help.
My computer specs are:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz
330W Power Supply
8.00 GB of ram
If you need to know anything else spec wise just ask.
