Exactly the title. Soon I am going to go from a 6700k to an 8700k, and I wonder if there is a way which I would not need to reinstall Windows, or just do a fresh install. Thanks!


(I do not want any conflicting drivers)
 
Solution
The best thing to to is test, if you get no boot / bsod and such, you will have to do a fresh reinstall.
If it boots, just install the new mobo driver and you should be fine.
If you get weird performance and it still boot, then do a fresh install.
