Hi, I have just received my Maximus VII Hero mobo, and since I have not changed that sort of hardware before, I was wondering if I will need to reinstall windows after changing my old mobo with this one?
Also, I am to buy the Devils Canyon CPU when released, would it be smarter for me to make one big change when I get my hands on that CPU, or is it smartest to change mobo now and CPU when it arrives? :)
 
Solution
I would make the change together, after the new processor is in your lucky hands. I woulds suspect you would need to reload the operating system, but it should be in the owner's manual.
