Hello, 

I am fairly new to building desktops and I am at my final stages of installing Windows 10.

Do you guys know any cheaper methods of installing Windows 10 Oem or Retail?

You could use W10 without activating, you will just have a watermark in the bottom corner along with some other limitations. There are sites where you can buy cheap activation keys, but I have personally never used them and don't know how legit they are.

OEM version is $90 or so. Retail is $150. Anything lower than that is grey market and more or less shady.

Not sure how thats any better. Windows is not something that gets BF price drops. The price retailers ask is what gives them suitable margins from what they pay to Microsoft.
