putting mb settings back to defalut?

i have an amd cpu and mb, the cpu and ram are oc, and i was wondering if i should put the mb back to default settings before replacing it?

Replacing the CPU? the mobo or what. If the CPU, can simply reset the CMOS which puts all to the mobos defaults

No real need, you won't be using them, the new mobo will read in your other components and you'll go from there

Can always reset the CMOS, simply remove the mobo battery for a minute or so

removing the cmos when nothing is connected will work?

Yes. It sets all the mobo settings to their defaults
