I'm upgrading my r9 270 to a r9 390, I heard I should uninstall my old gpu drivers before I install my new gpu. Is this true and how do I know which drivers are which?
 
Solution
Utilize the software provided by the manufacturer. If you have an install disk it will work just as well. Most installations uninstall the previous drivers before applying new drivers. You'll be fine if you just install the new drivers.
