Hi there, I'm a complete noob to this, so bare with me here

I'm looking to make me a computer from scratch, this will be my first time, I'm a bit scared because of buying the right parts, below is my SO FAR list of what items I'm getting to build my computer

Motherboard
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128437&cm_re=ga-h55_atx-_-13-128-437-_-Product

RAM
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104227

CPU
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115221

Graphics Card
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814141118&Tpk=biostar%20radeon%20hd%205570

Now my PC case has a 480W included with it

1st question
Will this all be supported?

2nd question
do you think I need more Watts than 480?

3rd question
what optical & hard drive should I get?

4th question
if I get a hard drive that is a SATA 3.0Ghz, it usually is Bare bone, what cables do I need with it to properly install?

I would really appreciate any help

thanks
 
Solution
1. Yes
2. Probably not, but if you're unsure google, "Power Supply Calculator"
3. Samsung Spinpoint F3 for HDD, for an optical drive, I guess a Lite On one would work fine
4. AFAIK, just a SATA cable
