hi, i'm planning to upgrade my PC, from AMD athlon 3, to Ryzen. so there will be a lot of part changed/upgraded.

my concern is the current win10 boot drive in old pc, can it simply be swapped to the new PC?

or do i need to note the win10 serial number and then reinstalling on the new PC?

Won't work as there are significant hardware changes.

Win10 OEM or Retail version btw?

i'm not sure OEM or retail, as previously it was a somewhat "legitimate" win 7, which getting a free upgrade to win8 then win10.
