    Alright so I really want to get the latest nVidia driver for my R1. But I really like the switchable option.
    1) If I set it to discrete and got the new driver but then I wanted to go back to switchable what would happen?
    2) I know there are modded switchable graphics for the latest drivers on these forums but the last time I tried I screwed up my system and needed to reformat. If I need to resort to this option which set of modded drivers should I get?

    Thanks,
    DeeVu
