What's your budget? Primary use? Do you need OS or monitor?

No you can't, you need to buy a legitimate OS license, any other means of acquiring it outside of Microsoft or its' authorized OEM partners is illegitimate. You will run into nothing but problems acquiring Windows from any other source. This is what I would suggest:

Good to know and thank you. Also would the geforce gtx 1060 and the evga supernova nex 650w 80+ gold be over doing it or incompatible?
