maybe add a better cooler, I don't how how good the one is you get with the cpu,

and maybe more/other ram, 2*4 GB is better(faster) than 1*8GB

NP, in your case i would look to swap mobo for some that is 10-20$ more expensive but has WIFI so you dont have to buy extra wifi card

Plus it wont fit in the case go for mini itx with wifi or take a bigger case

Its 100% legal, you get a legit CD key with which you can activate a FULL OFICIAL version of windows, withotu any bloatware only windows. Did it a few times already. (i would recommend to look for not OEM version so you can swap out components in your windows). Just check the reviews for the site you are buying from. Most are legit. If you are not sure (g2a, kinguin, hrk,cdkeys these i use mostly)

 

plus check if u cant get 1600x or 1600 ryzen with mobo for your mobo+cpu price, that would be better i think, especially for multitasking and productivity, in games it should be the same

Yes, it is perfectly legal. I bought windows 10 from eBay for 5 € a half year ago and not a single problem so far. Keyseller also sell it cheap but only buy from a reputable seller. I bought my windows 7 key years ago from ebay and also never encountered a problem.

 

Just be aware that it might get banned and then you need a new key. But who cares it was only 5 € so just buy another one.

That never happened to me, i would buy from ebay since it takes a little longer :P Those shops are better i think. Especially shops like kinguin which gives you 5% back as extra credit for future :P

6600k is faster than 7500 and when its the same price then dont you want more performance for less money/same? :) and when yo udotn OC you dont have to buy a lot more for cpu cooler, jsut get CM evo for 20$ thats fine
