    Hi everyone!!!
    I have bought a new r9 280x card with x58 mobo
    I did fresh install of windows 7(before I had 6870cf) and the card works!
    I have a question:
    Is it nessesary to clear cmos before installing a new gpu card?
    Or just do fresh install or DDU?
    And my last question:
    Is this card need settings to be changed in bios,to work better?
    Thank you very much!!!
    (I have to say that,for now,i have no problems with this card, I just wanted to make this questions ,to have best results of my card,Sorry for my English!)

    DDU is advisable but clearing cmos is not needed.

    I just activated Graphics Overdrive in AMD catalyst. I'll be honest, I'm not a tech genius, but that is all I did. No bios thing, and the card runs great.
