New build, would like to know if there are any obvious issues that I somehow missed

[TheGhostVII]

I don't see anything wrong (other than maybe the mother board), but I don't trust myself completely and would like some outside input.

Other then the motherboard an ram costing a lot , it seems ok. 

 

I prefer hgst drives but that's my preference

Why Kaby Lake with Coffee Lake and Ryzen available? Also, you may want to buy Windows for cheaper from a third party. Other than that, it looks great.

Any recommendation for a cheaper MoBo and RAM? I'm open to suggestions, since nothing is really set in stone.

Mostly comes down to price with why I'm choosing Kaby Lake. I can get the 7700K for under $300 while the 8700K would be about $400. If I can reduce the price on some parts (l'm considering reusing the RAM from my current build and buying a cheaper MoBo), I'll go for the 8700K.

And for Windows 10, is Kinguin safe or will I get a used/fake copy?

Meant 8700K, not 8800K.

8600K.

Performance and price is on par with the 7700k and you'll be on the new platform if you want to upgrade later to the big daddy 8700K.

You make a good point. Now for the motherboard, I'm considering a Gigabyte Z370 HD3P, MSI Z370-A Pro, and the Asus Prime Z370. Which of these is the best?

[GalacticRuler]

Basically better everything for the same price.

Kinguin is completely legit, they give you a windows key for cheap because it is an oem, but it works perfectly fine.

I've only got experience with OEMs so sorry for the stupid question, but will the key work with just any Windows 10 OEM I have lying around?

Same, but better, bigger SSD, better mobo, and more performance on the GPU.
