[SOLVED] It is possible to swap the M.2 SSD PCIe with OS installed between different motherboards ?

[Violett]

Hello guys ! As you probably already know, I have a system wich I want to upgrade. The old system have an Asus Prime Z390-a motherboard and an M.2 SSD PCIe NVMe Intel 760p 512 Gb, with the OS already installed. Now, my new motherboard is a Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Master. My question is about the possibility to swap the M.2 Intel 760p with the OS from the Asus motherboard to Gigabyte without issues ? From the other point of view, I have another brand new M.2 SSD PCIe NVMe Samsung 970 PRO 512 Gb already prepared for the new system, but I am interesed about the possibility to swap the M.2, because my Windows 10 Home ( with the licence already payed )wich is instaled to the old system, is an OEM DVD form factory, and I understand it is impossible to install such a form factory Windows to another system once it is installed to the other. My sadness is because my old system is in fact a brand new system wich I bought from a brand builder store, but I don’t use it anymore until now. My mistake for purchaseing a sytem wich not satisfy my goal about overclocking, but then I was less informed than now.

without issues

That is a 100% maybe.
It may work, it may fail completely.
Or, it might 'work', but you're chasing issues for weeks.

Given that one of them was a preinstalled OS, the possibility of working is much reduced.
And then the preinstalled OEM licensing issue comes in to play.

Just do a new install on your new system.

Thank you very much. I will follow your advice.About the Windows OEM DVD form factory, it is true that is impossible to use it to the new system ? Of course, I have the DVD.

In these circumstances, can I swap the CPU and the GPU between motherboards ? Thank you a lot.

Another question is about the possibility to swap the Intel I9 9900k CPU from the Asus motherboard and the to the brand new Gigabyte motherboard without issues ? The OS is an Windows 10 Home OEM DVD form factory wich was preinstaled by the manufacturer of the original PC. Thank you very much.

Swapping the CPU between compatible boards is generally no problem.
