Download how to windows 8.1 activator 1000

Hello buildapc. Reposting due to better timing and more active users online. I've been trying to build a computer for a long while now and already selected what I believe is needed, but I'm still on the fence on the parts I've chose while at the same time worried if I'm missing anything really important. I've been pretty familiar with computers to a certain degree but I'm no professional, so my decisions sometimes come with a sense of hesitation because there may be stuff I've yet to learn and even some parts of computers that I have no knowledge with at all. This will also be my first build without any assistance from the people who have helped me in the past and people who taught me the whole computer 101, so please forgive any lack of knowledge of mine. If I'm all ready to go though and I have all what I need to put together a working computer already, please let me know after looking through my post.
The list of my current build attempt is below.

Question I couldn't figure out via google.
Does the cheaper motherboards listed possess a big difference with how my build will work?
What's The difference between Windows 8.1 64-bit and Windows 8.1 full version? Are they virtually the same?
Is the pre-filled CPU liquid cooler require refilling or replacing?
Will my chosen Memory card work with any of the posted Motherboards without technical difficulty?

Furthest for price is preferably $1000 at max.(Might be willing to pay more but I don't wanna go too overboard since $1000 is already asking for a lot.) I'd really love some help or possible ideas so I can enjoy the PC experience once again after going 7+ years after my last build. This new computer will be used with programs such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe illustrator and adobe Flash if not cheaper programs that I'll be installing into it . It will also be used with free time gaming such as simply running Minecraft for fun or just running games off of Steam that may require some power but nothing like Crisis. (got a game suggestion? I'd love to know!] Hope this succeeds and please excuse any mistakes I possibly made in this post.

Greetings and salutations,
After almost a year with my M13xR3, I can safely say it is the best laptop I've ever used. The OLED screen is beautiful. The I7 quad-core is fast. Nvidia's 1060 is good enough for any game I've thrown at it. And I don't find the M13xR3 to be too big or heavy. Love it.
That's not to say there weren't a few little kinks to work out and a few customizations that needed to happen. Here I've put together what I've done to make this system practically perfect in every way....
Settings & utilities:

1. AutoHotKey script: My previous system, the wonderful Alienware M11xR2, lasted me five years. It had these great keyboard shortcuts where if you held down the Fn key allong with an arrow key it would: PageUp for Up, PageDown for Down, Home for Left, and End for Right. I got really used to these shortcuts - and the M13xR3 has them set as media key shortcuts instead. So, I set up an https://www.autohotkey.com/ script that brings back these shortcuts. Lately some programs have been acting like they have the "always on top" property set, so that mousing to the bottom edge of the screen did non pop up the taskbar - very annoying. I've also fixed this with the AutoHotKey script by making it so that if you left-click while at the bottom edge of the screen it pulls up the taskbar. In addition, this script allows Linux-like alt-click and dragging of a window, text–only paste from clipboard using Ctrl-Win-V, making CapsLock navigate up a level in Windows Explorer, and a couple date/time text expantions. Script posted at the end. I compiled it into an exe with the AutoHotKey tools and run it at startup.
   
2. restorebrightness.ps1: A great annoyance for me was that Windows changes the screen brightness between "plugged-in" and "battery" settings when you plug/unplug a laptop from power. The screen brightness I want is based on the AMBIANT ROOM BRIGHTNESS, not whether the system is plugged in or not. I finally found a way with a PowerShell script to monitor if the plugged-in state changes, and to automatically change the brightness back to whatever it was before this state changed. Script posted at the end. Took a bit to figure out how to run a PowerShell script at startup. Do it by placing a shortcut in "Win-R" > shell:startup that goes to: C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -Command "C:\LocationOfTheScript\restorebrighness.ps1"
   
3. filterkeyssettings.exe: For some reason this system has an annoyingly slow keyboard repeat rate. The FilterKeySettings utility at https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=41881.0 lets you turn the delay-between-key-repeats-when-pressing-a-key way down.
   
4. remove_all_user_folders_from_this_pc_64-bit.reg: I don't need all these stupid default user folders cluttering up the side bar and home page of Windows Explorer - and a simple registry edit fixes this. https://www.howtogeek.com/222057/how-to-remove-the-folders-from-%E2%80%9Cthis-pc%E2%80%9D-on-windows-10/
   
5. gpedit.msc disable onedrive: gpedit.msc > Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > OneDrive > Prevent the usage of OneDrive for file storage > ENABLE :-)
   
6. nircmd.exe monitor off: The most useful trick from the variously useful http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd.html from NirSoft is a shortcut which turns off the screen after a delay of a second - "C:\Prog\nircmd.exe cmdwait 1000 monitor off". Very useful if you have an OLED screen that you want to avoid unnecessary wear on.
   
7. sagethumbs & cbxshell.zip: I really like having thumbnails for PSD, ZIP, and EPUB files. https://sourceforge.net/projects/sagethumbs/ & http://download.cnet.com/CBX-Shell/3000-2248_4-75761092.html
   
8. Windows utilities: OOSU10, SumatraPDF, MBAM, CCleaner, ImgBurn, Virtual clone drive, VLC media player, Xnview, tinywall, MVPS hosts file, pangobright - They're all great. Google them if you don't know.
   
9. UltraUXThemePatcher with Penumbra 10, Firefox with Stylus and Global Dark Style: Both because I use my system often in low-light environments and to avoid wear on the OLED screen I tend to prefer dark themes. Windows 10 made it much harder to darken the background of Explorer windows, but it is possible with UltraUXThemePatcher and a dark theme such as "Penumbra 10" wich I found on DiviantArt. Similarly, Firefox with the extension "Stylus" and the "Global Dark Style" makes web browsing much less glarey. https://www.syssel.net/hoefs/software_uxtheme.php?lang=en
   

Hardware & drivers:

1. Touchpad buttons: A few months after I got this system, the touchpad buttons started sending double-click when single-click was performed at random times. I ignored it for a while, and the used http://jslover.net/AutoHotkey/Scripts/Buggy-Mouse script to suppress the issue. Then the warranty cutoff started getting closer. So I had Dell replace the touchpad on my system. Problem remained. They had me send my system to Houston. When I got it back it had a new touchpad again. Problem remained. They sent out a tech to replace the touchpad AGAIN. Third time's the charm and it seems to be working properly. That was a weird one.
   
2. Touchpad two-finger scrolling: Early on the two-finger scrolling with the touchpad seemed to lack precision and the inertial scrolling seemed off. The latest touchpad drivers from Dell resolved this issue.
   
3. Windows 8.1 Killer drivers and Connectify Hotspot: If you want to share your wireless connection/use this system as a WiFi access point, you need to manually install the Windows 8.1 Killer Wireless drivers as the Windows 10 drivers do now allow this kind of network sharing.
   

Yet to do:
Repaste - I have the Kryonaut paste but my temps aren't too bad... when I get board I'll re-paste the CPU/GPU, play with the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility, and see how much things improve.
