Hi,
I’ve seen a few people say it’ll be fine, I’ve heard that it is a terrible decision. Could I take my m.2 SSD out of my current AMD PC and put it directly into my new intel system? Should I reset it to default windows first and get rid of programs and drivers? Could use some advice. Thanks!
It won’t hurt you if you try. Windows comes with all the drivers for the basic functionality. Just backup your data before trying. If it boots, then go in and uninstall all the AMD stuff. If it doesn’t or you see horrible performance issues then you’ll need to reinstall windows.
Windows naturally has the basic drivers ready to use any CPU. For example, I have an Intel system and never had AMD, yet the AMD K8 processor driver and AMD processor drivers among other AMD drivers by Microsoft are there and ready to go when needed.
