    As the title says, I'm getting a 6970 as a replacement from Dell.

    Since I never bothered using AMD in the past, I am not too sure about their drivers, and how i'm supposed to do the whole CCC thing.

    Any advice?

    just check if the driver is the right one, if not, download it from AMD website, it's as complicated as some say.
