video card driver removal

Hello Group,
I should be getting my new GTX Radeon R9 280X tomorrow and my question is what video card driver program do you use to remove the old drivers ?

Also, what drivers should I use for Win 7 64-bit? the one on the AMD website?? I'm just trying to go through this as painless as possible and start gaming as soon as possible 🙂
 
Woot, Woot, I just got my new "XFX RADEON Double D R9 280X", will install it tomorrow morning, I'm pretty excited about this 🙂

Any tips from you R9 280X guys will be appreciated!
 
I had some trouble with the Raptr software that comes with the AMD driver. If games look like a slide show disable it or delete Raptr and see what happens.
I picked up a 280X last month myself, it puts out a lot of heat but I'm alright with that.

Also, usually I advise to get driverfusion from treexy, it seems to work well if you can dodge the free software.
