Hi, maybe a strange question but not 100% sure on the answer.

I have a NEW SSD and was going to plug it into my another PC and install windows on it, do all the upgrades and then use the NEW SSD in my Gaming PC.

Will it cause issues if i install windows on a different PC i am going to use the installation for?

Thanks in advance

It's a bad idea since both pc will have different components.
There a chance it might be fine but I wouldn't recommend you to take that chance.
If your Window 7 is an OEM license, then definitely no since the OEM will lock to the motherboard when you install Windows.
