Hey guys

 

I've just bought an i3-10100, ASRock H410M-HDV, and 16GB of Dual Channel DDR4 @2666Mhz

 

My current system has an i5-4460, Gigabyte G1 MB, and 16GB of DDR3.

 

How do I go about changing the components? Is it straight forward or would I need to do something else before changing them?

 

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

You don't have to do anything software-wise, except maybe take a back up of data just in case,and keep a windows fresh install ready just in case windows crashes or doesnt recognize your new parts, other than that its pretty straightforward, and just make sure to update all drivers once the upgrade is done :)
