Hey! So I am going to be building a computer in like November because I will be waiting for cyber monday. This will be the first computer I am going to be building so I need to ask a couple of questions!
1: Do all the parts come with cables and screws?
2: Do I need to buy an antistatic wristband if not where do I touch the case on?the case I will be getting is the nzxt phantom 240.
Those are all the questions I am curious about. Here are my parts.... thanks!

Yes all the parts will come with what you need to put it together. Just make sure you have a magnetic tipped screw driver. You'll usually get a stander screw driver with something but the screws always fall off and can be a pain in the ass even with a magnetic tip.

I don't bother with antistatic wristbands, just touch something metal inside the case (which is mostly metal). Static damage is pretty rare, that being said I probably wouldn't build a computer on carpet while walking around in socks. Wristbands are pretty cheap though so maybe it is worth getting one...

Yes, all the components will come with the necessary cables. Your motherboard will have your SATA cables for your hard drives/SSDs. Your case will come with the needed screws to install the components inside your case. Your PSU will also have all the necessary cables to power all of your components.

As byza has said, you do not need a static wristband, but considering you're a new builder it may be a good idea to buy one. Plus, they are cheap.

Here is a link to watch some build videos to with some very helpful info https://www.youtube.com/user/CareyHolzman/videos

Watch and read everything you can on building your system to prepare yourself for the actual building process. Research all of your components for your build and you will be fine. Just take your time and do not rush things. If you are unsure about something, just post your questions here on one of the many other computer-related sites.

Best of luck to you and have fun!
