The screws generally come with the case. These will include the screws and mounts needed to separate your mainboard from the case to prevent shorting. As for cables, it depends on the vendor. Retail mainboards usually include everything you need to make the board work, but if you have extra drives, you'll have to get them separately if they didn't come with.

If you buy a retail processor, it'll include a generic fan for you to use with it. OEM processors usually leave it up to you to purchase the fan separately; the CPU will come in a plastic case and it's just the processor.

Some tips:

1) Get a decent case. Cheap cases are a nightmare to work with. Spend the $60 instead of the $30.

2) Make sure the power supply that may or may not come with the case is sufficient:

3) Have a PS2 keyboard for OS installation - particularly if you're installing a pre-windows 7 OS.
