Custom built PC

[dawndawn0]

I want windows as my OS, but I have never built my own PC before. I'm confused about what I should be buying for my OS. Do I have to buy it directly from the microsoft store? I want to buy it off Amazon for cheaper. Also, can I put it in a USB instead of using the disc?

You can buy the OS anywhere you want. Just be careful it's not from some dodgy place

And yup you can buy it on dvd or USB (dont know if you can get any other OS on USB besides Windows 10)
