Consider your technical skills and the complexity of the installation.
I consider purchasing a PC from CyberPower UK and deciding whether to install Windows myself or have them handle it.
Set it up yourself—they’ll likely use a large Windows installer. You’d just need to configure the BIOS for booting from the Windows USB drive.
You want to know about shipping the PC without purchasing Windows directly from them. I'll clarify the costs for a retail license of Windows Home, Pro, or whatever edition first. Also, keep in mind: if you get a prebuilt PC, after the boot test, enter BIOS and adjust settings as needed.
Based on my familiarity with Windows, you should be able to handle the installation yourself. The installer will walk you through most of it. Just verify USB-Boot is turned on in the BIOS, and ensure the PC boots from the Installer drive when no other operating system is present.
