When I did a similar upgrade for my mate two years prior, (MB+CPU) the activation failed. The reactivation itself was seamless, I don't even have a Microsoft account but they still managed to track me well enough to let me reactivate without issue. Many state that a Mobo+CPU+RAM change is too much, but I did all of that and changed both storage units, given I did boot up the computer before swapping the storage to give windows a possibility to report back. What changes they count as too much isn't really common consensus yet, probably to Microsoft's benefit. Generally, the licenses are for one machine, which Microsoft defines as a few changes.
