I've not built my computer yet but I need to ask as I'm panicking..

I've got my
  • Mobo
  • RAM
  • SSD
  • HDD
  • PSU
  • GPU
  • CPU
  • Fans
  • Disc Drive

I've bought a SATA cable and power cable for my disc drive as it was bare.

I would recommend Capture Card if you ever want to record/stream something.
Do not allow the eye to fool the mind.

Capture card for a PC? Why not just use a program like Fraps?

You don't need a capture card for a PC.

He's got a NVIDIA GPU I believe so shadow play is fine.

Buying a Windows 10 off @Gnar on the forums.

I'm going for wired Ethernet Smile.

I mean like, do I need to buy some more wires or anything like that?

Your PSU Should have included everything you needed. Sata's, the MB port, The VGA port (used for GPU) and the two CPU headers and mine came with some extras.

Don't forgot to connect the cases headers to the motherboard or else it won't turn on. That's the biggest rookie mistake and they all have heartattacks when they press the power button and it does nothing. (personal experience LOL)

I haven't opened my PSU yet, I presume it should have it all.

brb googling what a case header is :noh: Heard it before but can't picture them

I'm a huge noob but we all start somewhere.
