Swap CPU and Mobo for better performance
Swap CPU and Mobo for better performance
Hello there, I’m upgrading from an i5 6500 to a newer i5 10600KF with a Gigabyte Z490 Vision G. Since streaming games is important to me, I want to make sure the upgrade won’t disrupt my setup. I have one boot drive and two extra storage drives, so I’m thinking about keeping most of my data intact. Would this change mean I need to reinstall Windows? If yes, what additional steps should I follow? Also, do you think I should link a video stream for testing? I’ve built systems before, but swapping CPUs and motherboards in an existing machine isn’t something I’ve done yet. Thanks!

The RAM is 2*8GB HyperX Fury DDR4 at 2133 MHz—though it’s slow, it was the only option I had when assembling my original build, which is why I chose Intel over AMD (and honestly it was more affordable).
