Ok, so I recently purchased a GTX 1070 founders edition from nvidia and I'm going to put it in my build, I currently have an MSI gaming R9 380 4GB, I don't know what drivers to uninstall to get the new GPU, plus I have the msi afterburner, msi gaming app, and the raptr program for amd, and the drivers from amd.

In theory, you do not need to uninstall anything.
Windows supports many graphics drivers concurrently.
But, I would simply go to the programs and features control panel and uninstall all the amd programs you see.
The GTX1070 will boot in a low res default mode without any drivers.
That lets you then install the appropriate nvidia drivers to get full resolution.
