Win 10 Fresh Install

I'm about to buy a Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit DSP OEI DVD and my concern is, will the product key inside the envelope work on a fresh install of Windows 10? I've read that you can use product keys of Windows 7, 8/8.1 after the 1511 update. 

 

Is it all the same regardless if you get the retail or oem version? 

Need to get answers before I download the ISO since our connection is really not fast. 

 

I've attached a pic of the product I'm about to get for your reference.

Until July 29th the upgrade is free and you should be able to install win 10 direct with an OEM key
