I don't get why every time there is a budget build they never add the OS.  Don't you need it to use the computer. So if they say 400 DOLLAR BUILD but there's no OS how the fuck am i running the computer ???? Somebody please answer this because it doeskin make sense to me.

What else is there to say i am to n00b to understand computers so yea...

Linux or assuming you already have a windows key from a previous PC/purchase

RIG: I7-4790k @ 4.5GHz | MSI Z97S SLI Plus | 12GB Geil Dragon RAM 1333MHz | Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970 (1550MHz core/7800MHz memory) @ +18mV(Maxed out at 1650/7800 so far) | Corsair RM750 | Samsung 840 EVO 120GB, 1TB Seagate Barracuda | Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 (Closed) | Sound Blaster Z                                                                                                                        Getting: Noctua NH-D15 | Possible 250GB Samsung 850 Evo                                                                                        Need a console killer that actually shits on every console? Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

Other people sometimes use evaluation copies...

Then complain to me about their Windows installation being counterfeit.

All the time. "WHY IS MY CPU SAYING THAT WINDOWS IS COUNTERFEIT?!?!?!?!?!?!!??!?!?!"

Linus has just about no game support and it's not very newbie friendly

It is very easy to use and has support for a lot more games than you think. My tech illiterate grandmothers prefer ubuntu/elementary os to windows xp, 7, and 8

It is just easier to use.

Pros being its free and it doesn't matter which distributiuon you choose, you will always get latest updates made to core features. Unlike with windows where you get one OS and then update only to that OS. Cons being limited game database/support, some problems with peripherals support and power use requires some command line skills or patience and google.

No and no. Aside from newest AAA titles you can get many games working with little effort. Either natively with Steam or GOG.com, or with WINE emulating. For basic use Ubuntu & co. are really user friendly. As mentioned above, power users will eventually need to either learn to use command line commands or google everytime you want to install something that is not yet officially supported.
