    If you want to build now go with something like this, upgraded power supply and better graphics card. I would wait for the new stuff to come out though.

    A Win10 Pro OEM license is about a tenner. You won't get multiple installs out of an OEM license anyway regardless of whether you pay £10 or £200 for it.
    If you need multiple verified installs, you need to buy Enterprise subscriptions really. Or just buy 5 W10 OEM licenses and use those.

    No, it's not difficult to control, but RGB does tend to add to the build time and difficulty, as long as the RGB components are setup correctly and can use the same control software you should be fine. The Corsair ICUE software will control the case fans, speed, and RGB, and if you were to get Corsair RGB ram it would control that too. A liquid cooler would be more difficult for a novice to install and would add an extra $120+ to the part cost while not necessarily being needed. For what you're doing with the computer 16GB is more than enough.

    450 watts would be enough for this build, but you would have to upgrade psu if you upgrade your gpu and maybe even your cpu. Go for at least 500, more would be better to give you upgradeability.

If you need to lower the price I would recomend doing it in the graphics card and staying with Nvidia as the Nvenc coder will allow you to lose less performance while streaming. The lowest I would go is a regular 2060 but I would avoid that if you can.

    I would definitely go nvidia for the Nvenc coder, as this will hugely help streaming, in this price range it would have to be a 2060 super but if you can stretch an extra 100 I would go for the 2070 super. If your not planning on overclocking your cpu, there is no reason to have a cooler as the 3600 comes with a decent stock one. I would also swap out the nvme for a 500 gigabyte ssd which would be around the same price and offer more storage.
