So all the parts will be here tomorrow (thanks Amazon prime) compatibility is not an issue but sitting here dreaming of a new computer I realized I may have missed some stuff.

I ordered an i5-6400, do those usually come with compound or should I order more?

Also do most power supplies come with a cable or is that a separate purchase?(I hate that feeling of needing to run out to buy something I feel like should have been included)

Thanks :)

There's a thermal pad on the stock heatsink, good for at least one setting of the cooler.

Yes power supplies come with cables..

The stock cooler you are getting with that cpu cooler as preapplied thermal paste.
And yes pretty much all psu comes with cables.

As long as you didn't get a 350w PSU without a pci-e cable, you're fine :)
