You can get windows OEM keys off kinguin for $15. 32Gb is enough for a windows boot drive. 

Please quote our replys so we get a notification and can reply easily. Never cheap out on a PSU, or I will come to watch the fireworks.

Hey many looks fine to me. Just consider getting a new SSD after a bit. You will love it. Or even trade that hard drive for one.!

Advice one: wait a month for the SSD to do the build. So you can install windows and not have to go through the trouble of moving anything over and potential OS problems. 

 

2. Go with a 2x4GB kit of RAM. Single channel will give you RAM bottlenecks

Then get 16GB now... 8GB is plenty for gaming, and light content creation, which is really all the load I would put on an i5.

don't need dual channel, it doesn't give you any 'ram bottlenecks', you'll save the slot for later and it doesn't impact gaming performance.

The Windows directory on my Windows 10 laptop is over 35GB. You should be able to get a 60GB+ ssd for around the same price as a 32GB. Or you might consider getting a small hdd, or simply go with the 2TB hdd to start.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
