well, your motherboard should come with SATA cables...
check its box content..

thats it....

then an HDMI cable for the LCD MONITOR

Whats wrong with DVD- Writer I have 2 of them in my current computer thats built and have had no problems so for $16 dont see whats wrong.

Power Supply.. I have nothing to say cause IDK if you can suggest one be my guest..

CPU Cooler- Again idk whats wrong with it have it on my current build and it works great no problems.

So why dont you like the DVD burner or CPU Cooler and what power supply do you suggest?

I am running Windows 7 which I have a copy

and Motherboard idk.. I just figured it was a nice motherboard..

Well Im not paying my Parents are Smile and I guess that is a good thing tho right? For future when SSD's are more common and HD's start to become less and less than this Mobo should handle it no problem?

toymachine2009- the latest list looks good, and the 11 yrs old boy will enjoy it (especially the case with blue lights). i'm suggesting this monitor (Acer S230HLAbii Black 23" 5ms HDMI LED) instead. it's a wonderful deal for $120. you'll get bigger and better monitor with hdmi input. hdmi connection is the latest technology and it required less cable (audio/video on a single hdmi cable).
