No. No. And no. They only time you have to get a new key for windows (if your not logging into windows with a Microsoft account) is if you swap out motherboards. If you log in with a Microsoft account - the key is associated digitally to your account, so you can replace, reformat, do anything you want - as long as you log in with the same username and password.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi preorder, since boxed processors do not include a copy of the Windows operating system you would have to install and possibly purchase a new version. If you have a previously purchased copy of Windows you should be able to just install it. If your copy of windows came preinstalled on another computer then you would have to purchase a new copy of Windows. Thank you for choosing Intel.
