Take your new passport to your local Immigration Department ASAP.

Hopefully your Embassy has given you the Letter Requesting Thai Immigration recognize your new passport.

you walk around without an official proof that you are allowed to be in the country, You can go when ever you want, but I would say do not wait to long, go as soon as possible.
