Always download drivers *directly* from Nvidia's website. The DVD software that comes with a video card is loaded with crapware that will choke down your system. Throw it in the trash. GeForce Experience is the only application I find useful which you can also download directly from Nvidia as it will automatically manage the latest driver updates for you. Some people don't like that however.

I did download Nvidia's Driver and really everything works fine..
I play battlefield 1 at Ultra and before with my i3-7100 I was playing at low with a poor quality of 1024x768
And now on 1080 I still can't believe this...
Anyway.. Thank you and have a nice day!

By the way.. I wanted to ask one more thing..
If I want to overclock this card in MSI Afterburn
How much memory Mhz+ and how much Core Clock Mhz+ should I add?
I don't want to destroy my card now that I got it..
So can you tell me if you know a safe overclock?

I'm not familiar with the 1030 and remember that every video card overclocks differently even among the same exact make and model as far as success goes. The general rule of thumb is to uptick core and memory by 5% at a time and stress test in a benchmark utility each time like Unigine Heaven. It will crash long before you damage the card in a stress test. The 1030 is a limited capability cooled video card, so don't expect to get too far unlike say more powerful video cards with two or three fans. Good luck!
