It depends, since you are switching socket you'll have to switch the motherboard which means you might need some different drivers or bootloader settings. (if the new board uses uefi you need to add the path to the bootloader to its settings, you can use a live cd/dvd/usb to do this).
If your system boots everything else (missing drivers etc) can be fixed quite easily. -
@Hativ @ItsNotMyFault Thanks, the old board also booted by uefi so I hope I won't need to configure a lot in the bootloader

!rant Hi, I have a question. I want to change my CPU, from a socket AM1 to AM3 to make my PC faster, it is the first time I upgrade it. I want to know if it is necessary to reinstall the OS. I have search in the Internet and it says you need to reinstall if it is windows because of the drivers. My OS is ArchLinux and I didn't need to install any driver when I first install it, do I really need to reinstall?
