You can ditch the cooler as the stock cooler is sufficient.
You dont need a OC board for a locked chip.
On a dual channel board, running dual channel RAM is optimum.
You can activate Windows down the line. There should be no difference in performance... https://www.howtogeek.com/244678/you-dont-need-a-product-key-to-install-and-use-windows-10/

Optimized your build with better parts...

RAM is one of the most standard parts of the PC. At a specific speed, they all perform similarly due to the usually common die source amongst them.
At 1080p/60hz this should be a solid performer for quiet a while. Mostly medium/high settings at 60fps, but it will cary from game to fame.
The 8400 is a very good gaming cpu for some years to come and by the time you will be ready for your next big crd, it will be still going strong... https://www.pcgamer.com/intel-i5-8400-review-the-best-new-gaming-cpu-in-years/
