Going from your version 16 to 17 is not difficult but there are some very important points to address. Your GPU, if it is an Nvidia one, must have a compute capability of at least 3.5, as Resolve 17 uses CUDA 11 which will not work on anything less than this. You will also need to make sure your GPU driver is up to date.
The most important thing to do is export a copy of your vers 16 database before installing 17. The version 16 database is not compatible with vers 17, and vice versa. So if you need to go back to version 16 you can. Version 17 will prompt you to update your database.
I've never had any problems with older projects after a version upgrade.
