Constantly changing vid drivers

Can constantly changing your video drivers say switching back and forth with 3-6 different ones a day destroy your computer in anyway?

 

No, but it can really clutter up the registry if you are not installing/uninstalling them properly. A cluttered registry could equal a slower computer.

Propper way to uninstall/reinstall video drivers:
1) Uninstall Driver
2) Restart computer / enter safe mode
3) Run Driver cleaner pro / Run Ccleaner and registry cleaner
4) restart computer
5) install new driver

I can go into more detail if you need me to.

 

HDD lifetime might be reduced slightly thanks to all of the reading and writing forcing your HDD platter to spin more often than it needs to.

 

Thanks, I do the above but I also use driver sweeper after using ccleaner, since I notice that after analyzing with driver sweeper in safe mode it picks up even more left behind nvidia registery settings that ccleaner didn't clean out.

Besides the wear and tear to the HDD what other hardware components could fail?

Indicates you should use Driver Cleaner Pro:

to remove all remnants of the nVidia drivers before install of new drivers.
