so forgive me for being thick, ive always built my own PCs for like 10 years now and i normally reformat with every major hardware change.
This time hower i just reformatted last week and then discovered im gonna have more money this month that i thought, is it possible to change your CPU without reformatting? Is there a special method or is it just a case of powering down and swapping them over?
Currently im using a Q6600 SLACR edition with a maximus formula 1 m/board thinking about change to a Q9550 or 9650.. that is if its even worth it which i'm still looking into.
Cheers.
