I'm switching from a 970 to a 5700XT. What steps do I take in order to upgrade? I've had people telling me contradicting information, specifically on whether to use DDU or not.
EDIT: Afterthough question, but should I also upgrade my PSU? I have a Corsair CX600 that I've been using for ~5 years.
And I have an i7 4790k, from my short searches it looks like that will bottleneck my GPU. I'm planning on buying the rest of the parts later on, but figured I would just go with the GPU upgrade for now.
Oh and, when using DDU (if that's what I should use.) do I need to make a system backup? or would it be safe enough to not worry about that.
