I'm getting an EVGA GTX670 next week, what are the best drivers to get?

I currently have an EVGA GTX570 and have been using 296.10 for the past god knows how long - Ive not changed it because it just works

Is the best thing to do to uninstall this one before putting in the new card, or just put it in and upgrade the driver?
 
I'm using 313.96 beta drivers at the moment and runs perfectly fine and smooth, no errors yet.

Personally I always uninstall, reboot, run driver sweeper, reboot and install new drivers, but a lot of people will tell you to not bother and just install them over the top.

Sometimes you'll get issues by doing that... most of the time you won't. I just like to know only the driver I want is in there :).
 
310.90 have been very good for me tbh. Though i might give the 313.96 betas a whirl for benching.
 
so uninstall current drivers, reboot, run driver sweeper, take out and connect new card, install new drivers (310.90) reboot
 
That's roughly what I would do yes :P.

Although I'd probably put the new card in without touching the drivers first just to let it boot to desktop etc. as it should work without reinstalling, and then start removing and installing new drivers from there.
