Hi this may seem like a thread that comes up a lot but I can't find one that specifically answers my question.

I have a AMD 260x but I'm not going to change or upgrade it, just install the new driver.

Do I need to uninstall it before upgrading?

Also what if i end up just updating the driver without uninstalling, can i uninstall the old one later?

Thanks in advance
 
depends if your going from amd to NVidia or vise versa then you do need to do a clean install use this Display Driver Uninstaller Download version 17.0.6.4
