Mr_sukebe Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Just checking. I intend to upgrade my CPU shortly within my PC. The motherboard, ram etc will all go unchanged. The change will be ONLY to my CPU. Is it prudent to de-activate prior to the CPU upgrade, then re-activate post?

Cibit Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 How about Motherboards. I have a faulty one and it is being replaced by the same board model.
