Upgrade from a gtx 285

[dave_beast]

Ive got the CPU to 3.3 atm with 48c when playing games, hopefully this will help when my 7850 comes along, its here wed so ill update.

One more question though, ive always had nvidia well except one time, so to wipe the drivers i just uninstall all nvidia crap clean the drivers then pop in the ATI card?.

I know sometimes you can get corruption from drivers so someone who swaps from brand to brand a lot what do you do?

Remove all the Nvidia drivers and install the card, then download the 12.11 beta drivers from AMD's site http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalyst1211betadriver.aspx
