Hardware ban

So I want to ask if I installed a new hardware such as SSD or HDD or even a new graphic card for my previously banned PC set that are banned with hwid ban, will my new hardware get banned when I login into my old account. 

Where my main question focus on will new hardware get banned after you installed it on a old hardware banned associate pc, because we do not know if eac ban which PC hardware parts or they can just ban a the whole PC hardware at first.

Further discussion is needed because I want have some recommendations on which parts needed to change or I can even switch the whole PC parts but I will try to retain certain hardware because they are really powerful such as my rx5700xt that contribute a lot to my apex gaming experience.

  • Hey @leeyongjunsgmy 

    I'm not sure if the EAC will trigger when you swap out certain PC components.
    I don't think swapping out a GPU or a hard drive does the trick but evading a ban is never a good idea.

    If you want your ban lifted you want to contact the Terms of Service team.
    They look into this and will lift the ban when they feel you have been banned unfairly.

    Naah I appreciated your comment but my issue is on the hardware ban cause I tried to issue my problem more than the topic I had posted so it is like I wanna know the mechanism on what to apply along with new account for overall brand new fresh start instead of ban lifting issue
