So I will be upgrading my gpu in a couple days and have a few questions. First off I have a 650 atm and will be upgrading to a 970. First question is do I need to go in to my bios to be able to setup my new gpu and if so how. Also do I just uninstall my drivers for my 650 and then install my new ones through Geforce Experience. Please let me know of any pre caution I should be taking to make sure everything goes smoothly. Thanks!

No, you shouldn't have to go into the BIOS to "set up" the new GPU. It'll just work. If it doesn't work, do a BIOS update first. And uninstall the 650 drivers before you remove the 650, and after you put in the 970 install those drivers.
