The card boosts to 1200 then drops to 400 Mhz. There is no thermal...

So I'm replacing my motherboard with the exact same model and was wondering if I could get away with not reinstalling windows 8 (OEM). I know you would have to if the motherboard was a new model but do you have to if it's exactly the same?
Thanks.
what wireless adapter should I buy? I will use it just to connect to the city's free wlan. I don't need it to connect to my router because I don't have one.
Building a new system around the i5 4690 and I'm just wondering what graphics would be best to pair with it? I'm looking mostly at NVIDIA cards. I'll not be running a lot of demanding games, just games like Far Cry, League of Legends and Football Manager really. I originally had the GTX 970 but...

So I replaced my stock AMD FX cooler with an Antec Kuhler H2O 650 V2 about 6 months ago. My stock cooler was a bit noisy but never got that hot, even on sweltering Australian summer days. The highest it really ever got was in the high 40s (Celsius).
Now my CPU bounces between 20 and fucking 70...
