You need to sort your link out. Also leave the optical drive you will rarely use it. Probably once for device drivers and that's it.

The link you posted won't work, need it from the permalink box. Im guessing it wont show any DVD drives since your tower doesn't have the slot for it, which case did you pick?

im sure its the case now, im just sketch on how to install windows 7 home premium from a flash drive. if i perches windows 7 from pc part picker, will the box have instructions for installing it via flash drive?

Here buy one of these http://www.amazon.com/External-Stylish-SDRW-08D2S-U-BLK-AS/dp/B006HUMYCO/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1439476407&sr=1-1&keywords=asus+usb+dvd+drive

I have one of these, i keep it in my IT bag since my computer at home, work, and laptop dont have drives in them. it will be the last one you will ever buy for any computer in the future.

Theres tutorials online on how to do so, also even if it doesn't have a spot for a disk drive if you can borrow one from a friend and just hook it up with the side cover off and just use it for the Win7 install. I had to do that when I build a system using the EVGA Hadron case. Theres also external DVD drives.
