This is kind of a double question, I've browsed the forum and haven't been able to find a solid answer so my apologies if I'm mistaken.
When I swapped from console to PC I bought a pre-built PC and about 3 years ago I made my first build, that I'm now looking to upgrade.
Doing the research I have a Gigabyte Z87-HD3 MB, which should apparently be able to take a 1080. Is upgrading the GPU as easy as uninstalling all drivers (bar the onboard graphics) then just taking out the old GPU and slotting the new one in? I've looked at a couple of videos but they only show what to do AFTER the PC is turned off!
