Just make sure you don't have to remove any packaging from inside,or need to connect a fan that has been disconnected because of this.
It will come with everything you need,just hook her up & follow instructions when you boot up.
Not sure if you will get a DVI cable unless you ordered a monitor.

I'm pretty sure it wont come with a VGA or DVI cable if you didn't order a monitor, since cables tend to come with monitors rather than with the actual PC :)

All that you will need to do is follow the windows setup instrusctions so you can get it up and running. One thing to look out for is when it asks you for the serial number for windows it is on a sticker which is stuck to your machine - probably on the back somewhere.

Other than that just plug it in and enjoy.

How would i check for internal packaging? Will the case have screws that i need to un-screw? Or will it have clips? (Im new to the whole custom PC thing ;)

Probably just a couple of thumb screws,depending on the case,
instructions will be given with the delivery.

You shouldn't need to remove a blue bag from that case but there will be a notice on the side of the case if you do need to. Other than that, just plug in and away you go :)

My elite 310 has screws you can easily take off by hand, no screw driver needed. The thumb screws do have slots for a screwdriver but they are easy to take off by hand.
