Looks great to me!
You've definitely have done your research.
Nice case! a have the Basic version it's easy to work on and has lots of room.

So I'm not missing anything? I should have the right cables, etc, to actually put this all together?

 

[davcon]

Yes your mobo and psu will include all the required cables.
I'm basing this on two complete builds in the last 6 months with no additional cables required.
In fact you'll have extras.
