Windows OPK For Personal PC?

So I bought an OEM version of Windows 7 to save a few bucks. Microsoft suggests that I use their OEM Pre-Installation Kit (OPK) to install Windows 7 on a system intended for resale. Since this is my own machine, do I have to bother with the OPK? Can I just install straight off the disk? Anything worthwhile in the kit?

Thinking of building a rig soon

Just install it strait it will replace the windows splash screen with your  mobos splash

Please follow your topics guys, it's very important! CoC F.A.Q  Please use the corresponding PC part picker link for your country USA, UK, Canada, Australia, Spain, Italy, New Zealand and Germany

Seems like I can't use the OPK unless I'm a Microsoft Partner anyway. Oh well; no free copies of Windows 7 for me I guess.
