Need help with cables!

Hello Toms Hardware gurus once again! I need help with cables. Now, I'm a noob when it comes to PC's. But in my time of learning about them I know a lot about parts etc. But... I know nothing about cables etc. They're so confusing!

Now... I'm going for a red and black theme for my PC. And I want the Red sleeved cables from Corsair which you can buy for all their modular PSU's.

Here is the list of my specifications for my hardware:

Chassis: Corsair Obsidian 900D
CPU: i7 4770K
CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i
Motherboard: Asus Maximus VI Extreme
GPU: Asus GTX 780ti (x2)
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Black 3TB
SSD: Samsung EVO Series Pro 256GB
PSU: Corsair AX1200i
RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB

If any of you enthusiasts can help me with a list of every cable I need that would be a dream come true!

If you need any sources, it's under 'PSU Accessories' I think under Corsairs PSU's.

Thanks! -Nuropc

Sorry, when you mentioned that you could buy red sleeved cables from Corsair, I figured you were already planning to buy a kit and wanted to get red and/or black cables for everything else.
Now that I look, Corsair doesn't sell all the power cable types separately. The ATX 24-pin power cable is separate, but after that it's a kit. To get red sleeved cables for the AX1200i you'd buy these two products:

Besides the modular psu cables, there's the SATA cables (that motherboard apparently already comes with black ones). The only other internal cables come pre-attached to components and are impractical to replace - the front panel cables for the case, and the fan connection cables. For peripherals, I don't know what keyboard and mouse you have, but those generally come with pre-attached cables. The monitor cable you'd need depends on what monitor you'll be using.
