Re-install Win10 on CPU change

Sturm · 1 Feb 2016 at 22:23

Does anyone know if I would need to re-install and re-activate on a CPU change?

Looking to move from my A10 APU to the 4x Athlon and a gfx card

Nope, only motherboard change triggers the activation, swapping out anything else is fine.

I dont think you will, i have changed intel cpu's many times without a reactivation but even if you do its an easy phone call to reactivate.
