The other thing as well he has a 1TB hard drive which he is going to keep still inside the gaming computer, how would he transfer windows to the SSD ? would it have to be a fresh install

you can use the free cloning software to clone the current HDD and restore it to the SSD. failing that windows 7 has its own version

guide can be found here to use the free csoftware
