[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 6970189, member: 718"] Yes, a download of W10 and purchase of a key. More problematic is the motherboard I'd imagine. Make sure that it takes either a ninth generation i9 or AMD Ryzen processor and has at least two SSD cards of the type NVME m.2 PCIe memory card slots and is compatible with generation 4 of these. Avoid SATA drives, even if solid state. Forget about mechanical hard drives unless you want to install an existing one for some reason. SSD nvme drives are now commonly available and reasonably priced up to 1TB capacity and 2TB are increasingly being offered. The bigger the better in SSD capacity, because you don't really want to fill them up if you are continually overwriting one. Latest 1gb quality nvme 1TB drives have a 600 TB overwrite durability. 16GB RAM should be considered the minimum with 32 being very affordable and increasingly useful these days. Also ensure you equip it with several Thunderbolt3 terminals, which are compatible with USB3.1 but faster. A good graphics card and CPU with at least 8gb of its own memory is also important, especially if gaming is one of your aims. [/QUOTE]
