I have gtx 770 but my device manager lists it as a gtx 660. How did this happen? I'm trying to update my GPU since I reinstalled it. Now this happened. What should I do?

Other Info
This is probably the longest I've ever had a Windows machine run without having to restore it to scratch. I'm used to restoring to "factory" about every 2 yrs. I've run with Win7 since new in 2009 and only recently (Nov, '14) restored to clean up the machine from all my 'xperimenting. LOL!! I may never need another machine.

Upgraded to 10 when it was still free, then installed 2017 update.
Yes. No one replied :( This is crazy.

Hi

I would suggest uninstalling the current display driver and all of it's components completely and then using the "Nvidia Driver auto detection" tool to download the correct driver matching to your card.

NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Automatically Detect NVIDIA Products

( you should use Internet explorer for the auto detection to work )

If the tool also detects 660, i would try to get the card replaced ( if it is under warranty).
