building gaming computer

Hi, i'm building a computer and its my first time so i'm not sure if I got everything right. I'm here to ask a few questions like if the parts are compatible or if i need to change anything or get anything else.
i know how to build it because of YouTube videos i have watched. And i also amen't sure how to install an OS and get the right drivers and stuff if someone can help greatly appreciated
:-)

All the drivers can be installed from your motherboard and GPU manufacturers websites, that's pretty straightforward.

For installing the OS, you'll need to burn an ISO to a USB drive, boot off it and install, its not hard either. Use Rufus to write it to the USB.

The PC itself is 100%, if you can push the budget any higher, I'd go for a better GPU, like a 290 or 390, even if second hand. I'd also try to add an SSD

Thanks, i will do what you said about the OS but sadly my budget cant go much higher for the GPU, i can always upgrade in future.

could the OS be transferred from another computer? or would it have to be bought again?

Depends, if its from an OEM machine like a Dell, no.

So probably not, W10 is fine without a key though.

You're probably better off posting Q's here or starting a new thread for them, mods aren't the greatest fans of old threads being dug up.
