You shouldn't need any additional cables or connectors, all the ones you need will either come with the case or the motherboard. As for the motherboard I'd stick with the Asus personally. I've always used Asus boards and never had a problem with them.

I know you said not to recommend parts but I would rethink the HDD and possibly the PSU as well. Seagates are ok drives but a WD caviar blue 1TB drive is cheaper and Western Digital drives are generally more reliable. Corsair builder series power supplies are also not the best in terms of reliability, you'd be better going for an XFX (Seasonic OEM) PSU.

Your build would then look like this:

Your GPU cost isn't considered in the total cost.

you may need to get power cable for smps because the cable which you will get with cx500 may note be compatible with Indian plug, for everything else you don't need to get any cable or wires

Asus M5A97 R2.0 is much better than Ga-lmt78 usb 3.0
as it got newer and better chipset with native support for usb3.0, 1866mhz ram, sata 3.0
and it is meant for am3+ cpu like fx6300

btw you can save some money buy getting vs450 because your system does not need much power thus this will be enough even with overclocking

btw just in case, don't get confused between Asus M5A97 R2.0 and Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 because LE is cheaper and less performance (less vrm) than non LE version but it is still better than gigabyte. If you don't want to overclock much then LE version will be enough for you and you can get better graphics card like 750ti or r7-260x 2GB after saved money

Its the same as in the OPs build in which he also did not count the cost, so I think we can assume he either already owns it or is not counting it in the cost of his build.
