I just wanted to quickly ask, if I wanted to change a motherboard and cpu, will I need to uninstall drivers and reinstall windows? I’m running windows 10 currently.

1. Where did your current Win 10 license come from? It makes a difference.

2. Read and do this before you change any parts:

3. Prepare for a full reinstall. It may or may not be needed but it is better to be prepared and not need it, rather than be unprepared and it completely fails to boot up.
