I own a 1440p monitor at 144Hz, which I use heavily for gaming, but I also explore editing and other tasks that benefit from the extra connections offered by AMD.

You can simply add a 3900X and it should work fine, though the ASUS TUF offers a solid improvement. 650W is more than enough.

The Neptwin is actually the most affordable dual tower 6 heatpipe cooler, and it should come with an AM4 bracket now.

No you cant, it would violate the end user agreement for windows. It doesnt matter if you are a home user or a business user you must purchase a valid license to use windows You can not legally resell windows keys on ebay. these keys are probably pulled from OEM machines not licensed for resale use. Its not legal, and therefore you should avoid supporting criminals There is so much mis information on these forums about microsoft licensing its ridiculous

Based on the seller, Amazon should function similarly to purchasing directly from Microsoft. Retailers like Amazon occasionally offer OEM copies with some limitations, yet they tend to be reliable and usually more affordable. If there were an issue, Microsoft would have halted Windows functionality after 30 days, just as they did for all earlier versions. In reality, they don’t concern themselves with unactivated installations and continue collecting telemetry data.

You misunderstood the licensing terms. The EULA specifies that Windows must be used with a valid license, as stated on Microsoft's website. Running Windows without a proper license violates the agreement you accepted during installation. Microsoft does not provide free Windows, so purchasing a license is required to use the software legally. Your interpretation is misleading and not supported by the facts.

They let it operate without activation indefinitely. They realize some users might install it without purchasing a license. If they cared more, they’d have forced Windows to stop after 30 days. That’s how they handled XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 8.1. With Windows 10 they abandoned the 30-day trial and simply permitted usage. In short, Microsoft does permit using Windows without a license. It’s also worth noting that EULAs aren’t always enforceable in court. Do you think many individuals access internet services through their home connections? Even when ISPs prohibit it, how many people share streaming service passwords? Many of those services don’t condone such behavior.

They enable you to execute it and receive security patches to prevent your PC from spreading malware and getting infected. In the past, people would run without updates, which caused more harm than benefit. No matter your opinion on Microsoft's motives, they haven't made Windows 10 free; you need a license to use it legally. I've already shared the EULA, and its description clearly states you're mistaken. Microsoft can change restrictions on unlicensed copies at any time.
