As you are changing motherboard you should plan on doing a full reinstallation of Windows.

New motherboard almost always means new Windows install. Though it's hard to say since you've given us no information as to your old PC or your new PC.

My old specs were:

i5 -3470
8GB of DDr3 Ram
Some old asus motherboard i dont even know the name.
Seagate 500Gb hdd ( which i wanted to keep windows and private files if possible)
AMD rx 570 4gb ( which im keeping)

New parts:

i3 - 10100F
16GB DDR4 Ram
Gigabyte B460 motherboard
Kingstone 240GB SSD
Coolermaster 550W PSU

Massive jump. Back up all important data (should be already) and then do a clean install of Windows, applications and games.

Full fresh install.
OS, drivers, applications, everything.
