Ms office is expensive and every year we need to renew licesne. Check with your circle if you can get a pirated version. OS some sellers give the basic version for free while purchasing pc from them else you need to buy it from Microsoft or from the seller

Congrats, on the new rig! It's very beefy, esp. with 2080 in there. It's very VR friendly too.

Steam - https://store.steampowered.com/ - is the go-to desitination for buying PC games. They have very good INR sensitised pricing and run weekly deals + 2 full stock sales every year in Summer and another during Christmas.

For older games - https://gog.com is pretty good too but they do not have INR pricing.

And please do not pirate software . In addition to being unethical and illegal, they are a security disaster and add a very high risk to day-to-day usage given a lot of people use social-media, banking software from their PCs/Laptop.

If you cannot afford the popular software, check open source world. There are almost always equivalent products available freely and legally (along with the source code itself!) and serve you for 95% of the cases paid software would. For example, there is Libre Office as an alternative for MS Office - https://www.libreoffice.org/.

Steam also runs on Ubuntu. Unless you need MS Windows based software, switch to Linux. You can get rid of the windows licensing fees.

A fan of linux too. But, unfortunately, for gaming Linux is far from an ideal OS. Not even Mac comes close to MS Win for gaming.

just download windows 10 from windows website and use, it displays a message on the right corner to activate your system, but does not restrict any usability apart from customising your desktop. My office system has been running for the past year, it gets every update like my OEM laptop OS. So I dont find the need to buy an OS, unless you want bitlocker or if they are blocking the system from running at full potential, I'm not aware of.
