I'm going for wired Ethernet .

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.

Thermal compound, I buy most things from Novatech

and cable ties if your case doesn't have cable management, most do but yeh cable ties, good to have them!

You get thermal paste with the CPU? :o And I have loads of cable ties .

Good good. I remember just making sure I had some, don't remember mine coming with any.

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

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

That's the only thing I could think of.

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

Fraps drags down the FPS and son.
It was just a recommendation.
There is nothing else that could be added to the build really.

I won't be recording my gameplays, so nothing like that really bothers me.

Then I would recommend SE'ing/Buying few extra SSD's for backup or something.

Yeh. Fraps also makes huge files. Do adequete recording using OBS or the free ones that come with GPU's these days.
