I'm building my first build. i have most of this list bought. but i can not decide on a motherboard, GPU (thinking 7850 or 7950), or which version of windows 8 (dont know what OEM means). any help would be appreciated.
The motherboard i would like to keep under 150$.
The OS i would prefer Windows 8. just dont know what version.
