Clean 10 install - new hardware - ?

So it has been years (literally) since my last Windows install - this was on 7 and that install lasted through the upgrade to Win 10.

I upgraded to 10 from a 7 retail license, but I am not clear on how a clean install ought to be handled as I am getting ready to jump to new hardware sometime this year. I am strongly considering jumping to all AMD here since these offer similar performance and are unaffected by the security vulnerabilities recently exposed on intel products.

Anyone do this recently - and like me - have to install to new hardware - with a digital license? Any advice to offer?
 
You can associate your current digital license to a Microsoft account so doesn't matter if you change all the hardware you will still be able to validate a new windows 10 installation on all new hardware. It is the easiest way.
