Note: I do have a data HDD which I use for data backups, so I do have a backup of all my files. So can this hardware change be done without reinstalling Windows 7 Pro 64bit? If so, can someone detail the steps must I take? This is a big change, going from AMD to Intel and ASUS to MSI. With an i5 4670K and DDR3 RAM of whatever quality brand is on sale. With an i5 3570K and DDR3 RAM of whatever quality brand is on sale. Seagate 750GB (backup data drive, unplugged most of the time) I am wondering if I can change my motherboard without having to reinstall Windows 7 Pro 64bit and what the process is.

And my Windows 7 install is in good shape (69 from power on to Firefox) so I don't feel a need to wipe my HDD. I have a lot of programs and games with mods set up in particular ways that are hard (if not impossible in some instances) to reconfigure in the same way. However, I would like to keep my current Windows 7 Pro 64bit install.
Obviously, this will require a new motherboard and RAM in addition to the CPU. I am thinking of upgrading my old AMD 965 to a newer Intel i5 3570K or i5 4670K setup.
