Nope, you will not need to buy a new copy. Honestly, I'd be surprised if you even had to re-load vista. I changed from a 680i to a D33 chipset and vista took all the changes and installed the needed drivers without issue.
i have had a similar problem with ram, just call they will allow you to reactivate as long as it for that one pc, if you activate more than once, on other comps, they will refuse it and your screwed.

After this build, I'm hopping to get a couple years out of it again before I build a brand new one. I cannot wait to OC this baby, it shall be fun. I just want 4GHz out of the processor. I'll keep you all updated with the build. TY
