Thinking of doing a MB,CPU and RAM upgrade next month with a new GPU. My vacation to the USA and other trips was cancelled, didn't lose any money, so have some money to spend. Keeping my 1.48TB of SSDs. The only thing that concerns me is that Windows 10 will detect it as a new PC? Will I need to re-install Windows 10, maybe have to pay to re-register? A lot of hassle to say the least. And also a lot of my online accounts, example, my Apple account will not authorize another PC, as my devices have reached there limit. In the past upgrading a PC's MB was a bit of a nightmare with the previous versions of Windows. Maybe just keep everything, and just upgrade the Graphics Card? I don't think a GPU upgrade effects Windows 10?
 
What's your current rig and monitor specs ?

What you looking to play ?

I have OEM and use the line of , had to RMA the PC and new motherboard was installed and it's not working now..

My PC spec is below my thread, can't you see it? Asus Maximus VIII Hero, Intel Core i7-6700K (4.0 GHz), Corsair Vengence DDR4 16GB, Asus Strix GTX980Ti, Corsair AX860 PSU, Samsung 850 EVO 1TB SSD, Sandisk 480GB SSD, Dell 27' 4K IPS Monitor. Oculus Rift VR. I am looking to play MS FS2020 in the new HP Reverb G2 VR, at the highest acceptable detail possible. I think that I can install a Nvidia RTX card to my present system, likely the new RTX3xxx series cards when they come out. Also to say I have had a few real flying lessons in a Diamond DA20 at Redhill Aerodrome. I already have Aerofly FS2 Flightsim and playing it on my Oculus Rift is fantastic in VR. Its like you are really sitting inside the cockpit of an aircraft, as is the same driving a car! However, unlike playing FS2020 on a monitor, the experience would be awesome on the higher res and FOV on the Reverb G2. But the VR version of FS2020 would be very graphics intensive on the Reverb, pushing even a RTX3080Ti to its limits as well as the CPU and RAM.
