Connecting the new MIP help please

[markturner1960]

Can any owners here tell me how to connect this please? I dont have enough cables sent to fill all the outlets and am wondering if I am simply missing some cables or there is another way to do it.......no help in the manual unfortunately that shows all outlets being used......

Are these the type of cables used? https://www.amazon.co.uk/INIU-Charging-Charger-Braided-Samsung/dp/B08J7PQGD7/ref=sr_1_11?c=ts&keywords=USB+Cables&qid=1667419018&qu=eyJxc2MiOiI2Ljc3IiwicXNhIjoiNi4yMyIsInFzcCI6IjYuMDgifQ%3D%3D&s=computers&sr=1-11&ts_id=430473031

I assume that the power supply ports that I dont have the cables for are optional? In which case I wonder why they are there? Basically, is the 7 cables cables I recieved in the package all I need? 

Thanks

The power ports aren't needed. One cable for the MFD and one for the display, SATA cable to connect HUD to UFC and one USB cable from the UFC. Make sure you have a USB 3.0 powered hub.

perfect thx - what advantage would there be to using the power inlets (5A) as well? Anything? Just wonder why they are there....?

they are they in case you dont plug your display through a USB powered HUB. To help power them, rather than having your motherboard having to feed them all the current they need. But you if you through an USB powered HUB, you are fine
