I'm currently upgrading to 1050ti and I'm confused, does the 750ti and 1050ti use different graphics driver? Does the 750ti or the 1050ti has different game ready drivers? Do I need to install a different driver for my 1050ti even though I installed the latest Game Ready Drivers for 750ti which is the Nvidia Game Ready Driver 388.13? And does this guy on facebook correct? Here's the image link: https://imgur.com/zdNYBi0

Please help me, I don't want to download the Graphics driver again since there is a data cap of my internet plan.

If you installed the entire geforce package software, and not just the driver, just uninstall the current driver and reinstall via the package you downloaded. That should work.

Yes they use different graphic drivers, they are different chipsets. To get the best performance, you need to completely uninstall the 750ti drivers and install the new 1050ti drivers.

You can get the drivers using this tool from nvidia;
https://www.geforce.com/drivers

Game ready drivers are simply new drivers that nvidia has released that directly benefit a new game. As an example, Call of duty ww2 just came out, so they released game ready drivers that benefit that game.
