Alright so my PC had recently died and I am going to be building a new one, but I only am purchasing a MOBO, PSU, CPU, GPU, and RAM. Now windows when being installed is installed on the hard drive and the MOBO if I am not mistaking. So would I be need to re-install windows, and if so would I be able to use a USB stick (I do not have a hard copy of windows.)

Yes to both questions
