GPU driver uninstall (lemmy.world)

Hello. I currently use an amd gpu. I've been offered an rtx 3060 at a really low price and I have the opportunity to test it for a few days, also.

I will use amd's cleanup utility for my card before installing the nvidia driver. If I don't keep the card, I will have to remove it (not installing GeForce experience, just the driver).

Now I don't wat to use ddu, so what will be the best way? Obviously I can uninstall it manually, but what if I make a restore point before using amd's utility? Will reverting to it undo all the changes safely?

Thanks for reading.

Edit: using windows 11

What is your reason for not wanting to use DDU? I know an AMD tester and they use DDU in house to reset for testing.

You should use DDU but barring that, just use the built in uninstall function in the respective drivers installer.
