Hello People,

Was thinking of ordering a i5 2500k and a Asus P8Z68-V/GEN3 Mobo oh and a gelid tranquillo.

My question might be a silly one but i need to ask.

When i replace my current mobo will i need to reinstall windows or anything? or is it plug and play, install drivers?

Im hoping the cpu will be a upgrade as my i7 860 is at 2.8ghz and im unsure how to overclock it on the dell mobo i have.

The Asus makes it look easy to overclock.

Thanks
