AMD CPU and GPU switching to Nvidia GPU Help

[BadAstronaut]

Hey guys, I'm back with another very silly request for help, but a request none the less. I made a mistake when uninstalling my AMD drivers in order to install my Nvidia graphics card and its drivers.

Specs:
M5a99x Evo R2.0
AMD FX 8320 @4.0 Ghz
GTX 1060 6GB
16GB DDR3
Samsung 850 Evo 250GB SSD
Corsair 650w 80+ certified bronze PSU
Win 7 64 bit

Firstly, I uninstalled all AMD drivers through AMD Catalyst under the express uninstall, meaning my chipset drivers were uninstalled too right? Before realizing that, I installed my new graphics card, installed the drivers for it and now I have to get my chipset drivers.

So my two questions are, am I supposed to just get the latest chipset drivers for my motherboard from the manufacturers website (Asus)? And secondly, how do I know if all of my drivers for everything in my PC is up to date? I want to make sure I have nothing out-dated or that will clash with my new graphics card.

Thank you in advance!

Doesn't matter.
First install teh chipset drivers from here: http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/chipset?os=Windows+10+-+64

Then use DDU to clean your current and any old remainder of display drivers: http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

Then install teh latest drivers from Nvidia.

Thank you for your help, I'm just wondering though, is it absolutely necessary to use third party software to remove my display drivers? Are there any risks involved with using it?

Not absolutely necessary, but highly recommended as the risks come with not using it, not with using it

Thank you for your clear and concise answers! This is what I'll do, I'll leave this thread open for now in case I have any more issues but it should be good

You'll be good. You're welcome!

Alright so I used DDU, it seems to have removed my drivers because all the icons on the screen got really huge and pixelated. It then restart my PC, but my screen is now back to it's regular resolution and it's as if no drivers were uninstalled.

Is it because I selected AMD as my graphics card, so it uninstalled those, but kept the Nvidia drivers I installed directly after putting in my new graphics card? I apologize for my lack of understanding, today is not my day.
