windows is assigned to your motherboard. change it and you'll have to get a new key i believe.

But you should be able to contact Microsoft and generally speaking they are pretty nice about transferring licenses. That was in the past with xp/7. Dunno how theyre gonna be with win10 now.

He linked his license key to a microsoft account.

He can change the motherboard and reinstall windows, when he logs in with his microsoft account it will activate.

He can change ANY part he wants.

after the upgrade, install windows, deactivated. Once installed, contact MSFT customer support, tell them you upgraded, give them your old key, they can reactivate windows

I agree with @Enderman. There is a whole page dedicated to this and MS specify even a mobo change
