I'm going to be upgrading both my motherboard and CPU and I know I need to reinstall the OS on my boot drive which I plan on doing a clean install on. I also have a 4TB drive that I use mainly as my gaming drive and besides all the gaming front ends like Steam and GoG as well as my actual gaming library stored on it. I also backed up all the files from my main drive that I want to keep. My question is what will I need to do with my gaming drive in order to use it to play games? Someone told me that I'll need to reinstall the games and the gaming apps. Does this mean I should uninstall them first and then reinstall them? Can someone explain to me what the best method for me woulde b? I've never replaced a CPU and motherboard without doing a complete wipe of all drives before but that was when I did computer repair and I'm trying to keep things simple with my own system. Would it be best to just backup everything externally and just wipe everything and start from scratch?
