I'm upgrading my current rig that has an
i5-4690k and a MSI Z97 PC MATE

I am going to upgrade to an
Asus STRIX Z270-E GAMING and an i7 7700k

Would i need to buy windows 10 again?
How would the process go?

Thank you.

if it is windows 10, it might work just fine without reinstalling

do you know what type of windows license you have now?

if it is retail, it will keep working, if it is oem, probably will not work, unless it is tied to your email account, if you logged in that i5 pc with your hotmail/outlook mail account
