OEM Windows 10 Home 64bit and PC upgrade

[ricoex]

Upgrading my MOBO,RAM and CPU next month.Formatting SSD and fresh installing my windows 10 64bit home.I bought this copy of windows like a year ago from newegg for $100,i have the CD and the CD key but will be installing with a USB drive.Just curious if i will have to buy windows again or if it will let me change my hardware and still let me use my copy of windows.Its a OEM copy and i have it linked to my microsoft account/outlook.

No need to buy, just you need to call Microsoft Support and transfer it to your new hardware. No issues.

Good Luck. Peace.

No, you do not have to call MS, or buy a new OS license.
