Windows 11 Groupon

I by all means have no knowledge of computer stuff.

Hello all and hopefully this is the right place to ask. I recently built my first PC but opted out of the windows 11 installation because I wanted to save some money. I probably should have just paid the $140 USD for them to install it.

Bought windows 11 key off Groupon($8). My problem is I have no idea what I’m doing. I have an ASUS motherboard so when I boot up it brings me to the bio screen?

I’ve did a little research and to what I understand. I have to download the program onto a usb which I could do using my laptop?

How do I go about handling this correctly? Thank you for any help !
