So i just acquired a second hand GPU

Still an Nvidia like my previous one, but im going form a GTX 960 to a Founders Ed 1060 (6gb)

I know i have to uninstall drivers, then reinstall with the new card, anything i need to do to F@H?

Obviously going to wait until current WU finishes so it doesnt effect the computations

Ps this is Windows 10, in case that effects the instructions

It sounds to me like you are all ready!

(I need to swap out my 1050ti LP card with a 1650 LP card)

The FINISH function is great to clear out the active WU, There's a chance that your current WU would continue after the hardware change and driver update, but I wouldn't risk it.

Thanks fellas

Should work, worst case is that you might need to reinstall the client after an uninstall w/data. Indexes for card location can change after a driver update if the driver code between different generations of cards is sufficiently different.

I hope yours goes as well as mine! I went from 190,000 PPD to 320,000 PPD
New graphics card and more RAM, while I was in there with the graphics card.
