OEM keys are linked to specific boards, which makes me doubt if your key is genuinely OEM. However, you can move keys easily—just connect it to your MS account and try the activation troubleshooter. Personally, I haven’t questioned anything. I installed Windows 10 on a rebuilt old PC, hoping for a new license, but ended up getting a full Home key for free. It’s possible MS servers noticed the hardware setup and reactivated the key, especially since I moved that Windows key to my Ryzen upgrade.
It seems the outcome was more probable since I didn’t have to type a key, and it simply started up normally with a completely different board. That’s pretty cool—you’re lucky too!
Based on the close relationship between B450 and X470 chipsets, there might not have been enough delta in the Hardware ID to initiate the re-arm activation. To verify your key, execute the command `slmgr /dlv` from the cmd prompt for a summary.
