    So what I can do, please correct me if i'm wrong:

    1. Make a USB boot drive. 

    2. Swap the CPU/Motherboard.

    3. Boot the PC on the USB boot drive.

    4. Hit clean install on C drive (Boot SSD).

    5. And log in with my Microsoft account so my Windows 10 will be activated

     

    Is that about it? 

    Pretty much! You'll need to run a format on the boot SSD, but that's achievable through the install GUI.

    Windows won't touch your other drives on installation.

    Honestly it's for why not and I don't know if adding more would cool down my gpu because it's about 75c if I'm playing graphic intense games

    It probably won't have an effect on the temperature of the GPU, honestly I'd recommend just saving your money for an upgrade that'll improve gaming performance.

    well i just want a couple more fans should I just get like 1 in the back to pull air out or should i bother putting some on top as well?

     

    Are you experiencing overheating? Or just want another fan because why not?

    Looking at the product page they don't include an exhaust fan, so yeah placing a fan to push the hot air out the back of the machine may help, most likely it won't change anything.

    I personally use Noctua fans, this one would be suitable for an exhaust: https://www.amazon.com/Noctua-NF-F12-chromax-Black-swap-Premium-Grade-Quiet/dp/B07654PNFQ/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=noctua+fan&qid=1550870352&s=gateway&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1
