Hi Everyone.
It's been a while since I built a new computer. This is what I'm looking at.
ASUS AMD AM4 ROG X570 Crosshair VIII Hero
Noctua NH-U12S, Premium CPU Cooler with NF-F12 120mm Fan (Brown)
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X - Ryzen 7 5000 Series Vermeer (Zen 3)
G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C16D-32GVK
SAMSUNG 980 PRO M.2 2280 1TB PCI-Express Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 1.3c Samsung V-NAND 3-bit MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-V8P1T0B/AM
Microsoft Windows 11 Pro 64-bit, DVD - OEM
This is what I have money for at this time although I have not purchased anything yet.
I will be using my Geforce GTX 770 graphics card in the beginning. From what I have read it will work.
I have an Antec dark fleet case with 1000 watt power supply that has the necessary power connections.
DVD drive
I don't do gaming. It's mostly used for web, YouTube, Corel Photoshop and Family Tree Maker, but I'm aiming at a fast computer. I work on genealogy. The Corel Photoshop 2019 and Family Tree Maker run pretty slow on my current computer. It's about eleven years old.
These are the questions I have tried to search for, but can't find a straight answer.
Can I install Windows 11 Pro OEM on my new personal computer?
Will the install portion of Windows 11 take care of the required offset and trim for the M.2 SSD? I don't have a way to connect this SSD to an existing computer via USB to set the offset, make sure trim is enabled and format.
Any other advice would be appreciated.
