Windows download question

Looking to build my 1st gaming pc, and I figure I'll buy Windows 8.1 (some say it has better gaming performance generally than 7). I don't see where I can buy just a downloadable version of Windows, just see the DVD versions which means I'd have to add a DVD drive for my system which was not in the plans.

 

It seems the pirate or G2A methods are not so trustable/reliable. Am I'm missing options here, or is buying a physical copy of Windows along with a DVD drive my only reliable choice?

Pirate bay is trustable. Just search up the OS you want and pick the one with the most seeders. Why would 1000+ people be seeding an unreliable OS?

G2A is reliable also you can get a the disk and just use the product code 

 

so is TBP

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

You can download direct from MS (digital river hosted IIRC)

If you can't find the correct links just contact MS support.

Ive seen torrents with 1000-2000 seeds that where fake seeders, but luckily kickass.to has those verified uploaders.

 

 

i bought my code on G2A (will use it tomorrow) and they have G2A shield so you are safe. go here for the installation media creation http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only
