I am on the fence about getting the OEM, or full edition. OEM is half the price at $90, while the full edition would stretch my $950 budget for a custom computer. This is my first time ever building my own PC, and I probably will not upgrade for a year or two (I would end up buying a nicer GPU). As long as I can play most games on medium-high with min FPS around 20-30 for the next two years I would be fine.
From my understanding its locked to you motherboard. So this would mean if my motherboard broke, I would have to get the same exact model to re install it?
What are your experiences with this? Even if I did have to buy another one, I would break even compared to the full edition. Then again, I do not plan on upgrading to 8 so perhaps it would be good to have the full version to be future proof. I am so 50/50.
If needed for whatever reason, this is my part list.
