I have an i5-7600K and need to swap it into a new motherboard (Asus Prime Z270-A). My old motherboard was a MSI Z270-A Pro.
I’ve heard discussions online where I could need to reinstall a new copy of Windows 10 if I did this. All of my other components would be the same. Only a motherboard change would be the difference. Also I will be activating windows 10 onto my online Microsoft account so it will carry over onto the new motherboard.
Would I need to delete the chipset drivers before installing the CPU into the new motherboard? Or leave the old chipsets on there as they are both Z270?
Can somebody help and give me advice. Many thanks.
