I got my replacement EVGA GTX 1070 ACX 3.0 in the mail today and currently swapping it out for the exact same card..do I need to reinstall any drivers or anything at all or can I just plug and play? Also the same with my CPU? Replacing my 6700 with the K version and wondering if theres anything I'll need to update or install

If it's exactly the same, then no the drivers will be fine and don't need reinstalling. Drivers aren't like a firmware/BIOS update where you need to update the actual hardware.
