Also, one more question. Do I need to buy my CD drives OEM? If I buy them OEM, will mymobo come with the necessary SATA cords and other cords needed for the drives?

Almost all optical drives are OEM. On your mobo details and specs somewhere it will say on there the cables it will come with. 9/10 it will come with enough stuff you need.
