No, no they are not.

8000 series chips need a 300 series intel board. They will NOT work with a 200 or 100 series board.

Thanks! how about now?

just wondering if these parts are compatible just in case I decide to go desktop instead of a laptop. ( I have a spare ssd )

Yah, should be fine.

You could look at swapping the PSU for if you want to save a few bucks

You can buy a copy of windows online and it will either come with a USB key or you can make a USB installer yourself directly from Microsoft.
