So I am on the verge of upgrading motherboard, cpu and ram on my current system (see sig)

It is currently running windows 10 which was upgraded from windows 7 retail

Am I going to run into problems re-activating windows?

Will I have to buy a copy of windows 10?

How would this work, would I install windows 7 then re-upgrade?

Or would I straight install windows 10 from a windows 10 download on a bootable usb?
(I actually did this after I had upgraded and activated to get a fresh install of 10, followed a guide online)

Sorry for all the questions, don't want to get it wrong!

Thanks
 
Thanks for the detailed reply stu!

Will give it a go when I have decided on my hardware for the new build.
