Im upgrading my 3 year old AMD build to a decent Intel one. I am going to change motherboard, CPU and ram. my graphics card and SSD dont really need upgrading yet.
I am currently running windows 10, it was windows 8 OEM but i did the free upgrade thing.
my question is, when I put the intel parts in, will i need to reinstall windows? if I do how do I go about that considering im using the free upgrade windows 10 oem? I know how to put an install iso on a usb, so thats not an issue, im just wondering if the license will still work with the new parts, considering its an OEM verison?
i have googled it, and to be honest it left me more confused, some people said no need to install, some people said its a must, some said windows will reinstall fine, some said ill need to buy a new copy.
thanks.
