Need help switching new gpu

Hello, it’s my first time upgrading my gpu and Im not much of a tech person, so I wanna ask some questions to make sure that I’m doing things correctly.

I’m switching from an rtx 3060 to 5070 and so since they are both from Nvidea, is it as simple as just replacing the old with the new? Or are there an extra steps that I need to do?

People seem to suggest uninstalling the driver from the old card first, but since the latest version of Nvidea driver seems to have some issues, would that be a problem for the new card? Or should I just wait until they sort out the driver issue before switching the gpu?
