Will I have to reinstall Windows 10 after changing AMD CPU?

[Mel_P]

I currently have an AMD CPU - A6-6400K (FM2, AD640KOKA23HL) and am thinking of changing this to an Athlon x4 860 quad core CPU. Motherboard is ASUS - A68HM-PLUS

Will I have to reinstall Windows?

If it's the same mainboard it'll be fine.

Just finished my post! You were too fast! ASUS motherboard is A68HM-PLUS. Asus web site says Athlon quad core is ok and just updated to latest BIOS.

Thanks.
