I have sucessfully built four pc's using W10 pro 64 System builder software which is OEM and later used the free upgrade to W11. All are registered with Microsoft, so the software is not likely to be counterfeit.
I might be building another pc from scratch and have noticed that similar software with W11 already on is available for 1/4 the price that the retailers sell it for. I would not be interested in transfering the OS from one pc to a later one so OEM suits me.
Is it worth buying W11 in this format?

Builder software available now with W11 pro rather than earlier builder software which had W10 on it. This would bypass the W10 to W11 upgrade stage.
The retailers are selling standard software, not the builder packs.
