Question Win10 on SSD to New PC

[PCMDDOCTORS]

If I take my SSD from my old PC and put it in a new system, will it still Boot like normal?

Chances are no, typically any substantial hardware change requires a fresh install.
Even if it works, you could run into issues, so a fresh install is better either way.

Try it, it will or it won't
And if it does, run some programs to see if it crashes.

I have had success sometimes, failure others. It all depends on how close the old platform was to the new one. W10 has the ability to recover and install necessary drivers better than previous versions. But it is still a 'maybe' situation. Your license may or may not be valid afterwords, tho. And the Registry will be a mess.

Doing this, there are 3 possible outcomes:

1. It boots up just fine
2. It fails completely
3. It boots up, but you're chasing issues for weeks.

I've seen all 3.

Need much more info as to the old parts and the new parts.
Where did the WIn 10 license come from?

Ok, I have a SSD that had Win7 Ultimate on there. 2 weeks ago I upgraded to 10. I have heard that a SSD with 10 on it can boot in any system. I don't know how true it is. My current specs are:
AMD Phenom II x6 1055T (Stock) I don't overclock anything.
MSI 970 Gaming Mobo AM3+ Socket
2x4GB DDR3 666mhz
480GB Mushkin SSD
Asus Radeon HD 6670 1GB GPU

My new Specs:

AMD Ryzen 5 1600
Gigabyte B450 Aorus M MATX
2x8GB Crucial Ballistix Sport LT DDR4 3200mhz
Seagate Barracuda 4TB 3.5" 5400rpm
ASRock Radeon RX 570 4GB Phantom Gaming D
Cooler Master Master Case H500
EVGA BQ 500w PSU

You heard wrong. That is not an absolute 100% yes.

For the OS activation, read and do this before you change any parts:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/20530/windows-10-reactivating-after-hardware-change

Windows build 1607 and Activation

So, the Anniversary release is out, and many people have updated their machines. Interesting changes with activation and hardware changes. Specifically, the Activation troubleshooter: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/20527/windows-... You must link your OS license with your MS account...

For the actual operation, with that level of change, you should really prepare for a full wipe and reinstall.
It might magically boot up. But it might not.
