I'm upgrading components and have a simple question!

skatethiest · Apr 19, 2017

Hi guys. I'm upgrading my CPU, RAM and MOBO. I'll be keeping everything else the same. Is it as simple as dismantling and installing new hardware and clicking 'power on' or are there steps I should take? Thanks for the information!

What is the old system spec? new parts? os?

You will have to reinstall the operating system to get the best from the new system.
Apart from that should be ok.

Basically, yes.

Be sure to read your new motherboard manual to get the arrangement of the front panel header wires

Thank you guys. Will be upgrading my 8350, sabertooth r9 and ram to the Ryzen 1700, msi b350 and ddr4

enough different that a reinstall of the os is best
and depend on the case, your front usb connector might not work with the new motherboard
