so far it was basically plug and play. i just had to find extra PCIE power connector because the new card needs two of them while the old one only used one but my PSU had the extra connector.
booted into window straight at 4K resolution because both cards are Nvidia so they use the same driver.
i'm updating the driver though just because a newer one is available. there wasn't any issue with the old one.
the new ( ok 4 year old refurbished ) GPU for my old PC is here - wish me luck LOL
even though i have two new computers for some reason i keep using this old one as a main - that's the one the GPU is for
i am going to shut down and if you never hear form me again it means the operation was not successful
just kidding - you will hear from me but it might be from a different device - this PC has been on its last legs for a while which is why i am replacing a GPU with a refurbished older model rather than a new one because i don't plan to keep this PC for long anyway
shutting down ...
