Your Seasonic PSU should come with at least 9 cables:
1x Main Power (ATX 24-pin)
1x CPU (ATX12V 4+4 pin)
2x PCIE (6+2 pin)
2x SATA (one is longer with 4 connectors, one is shorter with only 2 connectors)
2x PERIPHERAL/4-pin MOLEX (one is longer with 3 connectors, one is shorter with only 2 connectors), and
1x FDD (for floppy disk drives)

Basically, from the parts you listed, you'll only be using 4 cables total:

1x Main Power (ATX 24-pin) plugs into your MSI motherboard (24-pin ATX POWER socket)
1x CPU (ATX12V 4+4 pin) plugs into your MSI motherboard (8-pin ATX12V socket)
1x PCIE (6+2 pin) plugs into your MSI GeForce GTX 960 2GB GPU
1x SATA plugs into your Seagate HDD

What is an 8 pin cpu power connector in cablemod terms. Also wouldn't i need a sata data cable?
 


Usually comes with motherboard.
 


Its the 4+4 EPS cable

SATA Data Cable is not connected to the PSU. But you can order that anyway in CableMod if you like. It connects your HDD to the MB only.
