Hey guys, I'm needing a OS for my computer I'm going to build. I'm not sure if this is the right section but here goes. Does the OEM make any difference to a private user? Does it come with a CD?

Yeah you can stick with OEM just fine:
OEM versions of Windows 7 are identical to Full License Retail versions except for the following:
- OEM versions do not offer any free Microsoft direct support from Microsoft support personnel
- OEM licenses are tied to the very first computer you install and activate it on
- OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard
- OEM versions cannot be used to directly upgrade from an older Windows operating systemCPU: Intel i5-3570k (4.2GHz) MB: ASUS Z77 Sabertooth (uefi 1805)
GPU: Sapphire 7850 (1050MHz/1275MHz) RAM: Corsair LP/LV white 8GB 1600MHz
SSD: Samsung 840Pro 256GB + Crucial m4 128GB (040H) PSU: Seasonic 620M CASE: Corsair 500R (White/Black)
