SATA data cables come with motherboards (you dont need one), power cables are on PSU or come with it. Anything that is on the case, as you might guess, comes with the case. You dont need to buy any cables.

Everything looks fine. No need for any extra cables AFAIK.

Do you need any cables? Nope, everything's included. You could add some nice sleeved PSU cable extensions for some nicer esthetics.

You might want a fan hub fight tight cable management but it's very optional. Make sure your cooler clears your DIMMs.
I also assume you got a GPU.

Motherboards usually provide you with one or two sata cables.  The SATA power cables come with the power supply.

But, your configuration doesn't have any SATA hard drives, it contains only 2 M.2 drives, which plug directly into the motherboard.

 

I would argue that it's seriously stupid to pay 90 pounds on 4 coolers.  The case comes with 2 fans already preinstalled.

Just pay 20-30 pounds more on a better case that comes with more fans pre-installed if you think you need that many fans.

 

Also in real world scenarios, you wouldn't notice ANY difference between that 970 Evo plus and the SN550 drive.

You could get a 2 TB SSD for 188 pounds, ex the Adata XPG SX8200 Pro  if you want drives with dram cache and all that, you can see review here : https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/adata-xpg-sx8200-pro-ssd,5955-4.html

Thanks everyone! My friend just messaged me saying "ayo u bought the cables" so idk maybe he was joking or just slipped lmao.

 

Yeah perhaps the fans weren't the best idea, maybe a better case would have done but they're already ordered so I'll note it for next build lmao.
