hi, i currently have a nvidia 8800 ultra and am looking to upgrade to the gtx 260 or 280, will i just have to change the card and it will work? or will i have to do other stuff? as far as i know its the same driver, i may be wrong. thanks for your help.
 
You need a 550W PSU with 40 amps on the 12v rails with the 280 or 500W PSU with 36 amps on the 12v rails with the 260.
You need to feed the new card a pci-express connector like the old one.
Uninstall the old drivers and reinstall them.
