Hey, I know this is kind of a newb question, but i need to know if you need to reformat if you get a new motherboard installed? that is if its a different motherboard.

yes you should. I guess you would not have to but you are pretty much garenteed to experience some difficulties.

I highly recommend it.

make sure you install your new chipset drivers also.

is it possible for you to just try it w/o reformatting the hard drive? worst case, you can always save your data and reformat later.
