Does Windows 7 OEM require an OPK

[TopMark]

Does windows 7 OEM require an OPK or do you just install it like a normal full retail version? I have looked for similar threads and all of them are from 2010 or earlier. I was wondering if any of it has changed or you can still just install it without having to worry about the OPK. Thanks

Strictly speaking if you sell the machine you are required to install via OPK and provide support for the machine and software. But as, presumably, you're keeping it yourself, what's the advantage?

Why would you want a OPK as a individual? You would only bother with a OPK if you were installing Windows on hundreds of computers. For a individual with a OEM version of Windows just install it as normal.
