I'm hoping I can get some clarification as to my dilemma?
I am currently running 10.9.1 on a P35-DS3L, I am using an Intel C2Q Q6600 with an MSI R7970 Lightning.
I am wanting to know if I can swap out the CPU and gfx card for an E6600 and an Asus GT210?

Apologies for the text formatting. Using iphone.

Any insight appreciated.

I need the CPU and gpu to go into another machine. My concern was can I put e6600 and the 210 in without having to reinstall mavericks.
 
Would I need to reinstall OSX?

Thanks

I don't think you would need to reinstall osx but you may have to install some graphics kexts or change some boot flags
 
Ok. Thanks. :)
