Can I play again if I re-install ?

Hello Everybody
I plan on getting a new motherboard and CPU in preparation for the 700 series and I want to ask.
On my current save I run something around 60 mods, what will happen if I backup the save and then re-install the same mods after formatting my PC ?
Will the save explode ?

Yes, right along with your brand new PC.

No, you'll be fine as long as you make sure to back up our save and re use the same mods. It might not be a bad idea to make a backup of your data folder as well.

Anyway, thanks for the answer !

I have a separate Steam harddisk.
PCs (and their OS's) come and go - but my Steam disk is forever...
Just make sure you grab all the game saves from My Documents.
