You can keep the existing Windows installation on the SSD without a full reinstall. Just ensure the new hardware is properly recognized and drivers are updated, which should maintain performance.

It’s likely the system will request your C Key again because Windows activation depends on hardware details like the motherboard and CPU. A big change like this usually prevents automatic unactivation. Please contact Microsoft for assistance. Additionally, performing a fresh installation would be beneficial given the new chipset and CPU—this ensures a clean setup and helps avoid any corrupted files.
