I'm upgrading my system with three new parts, and plan to replace the three parts listed:
Motherboard:
Pegatron 2ACF -> Gigabyte GA-Z97-HD3
CPU:
AMD A6-3650 2.6GHz -> Intel i5-4690K 3.5 GHz
GPU:
Nvidia GTX 560 -> Radeon HD 7970
OS:
Windows 7 -> Windows 10
With all of these changes, I was assuming I would have to atleast wipe the old HDD. I have Windows 10 on a USB drive to install/boot, will it automatically clean the drive upon installing/booting?
I'm also curious as to if I will be able to move installation data to a backup drive to restore, such as downloaded games, in order to save some time and avoid downloading them again.
And finally, will I be able to just simply drag and drop files that I've moved to an external drive back onto my system after the hardware is installed, without conflicts?
Thanks for any assistance!
