I have the same card. You actually don't need the included power cables if you have an unused SATA cable ( the same cables that provide power for your DVD-drive and HDD) available. The included cables are only used if you don't have a unused cable, they will then plug between an existing cable and the device that it was connected to.
The card itselfs appears to be pretty decent quality for the price, so I hope that when my Rift arrives everything works without a hitch.
Cool I plan to order the 5 Ports Rear & 20 PIN Internal version KTU3FR-502i. This one will allow me to use the USB 3.0 front panel connector in my case.

I did the same thing! Ordered KTU3FR-502i and it works like a charm on my old Asus Rampage III extreme, and also connected front USB 3.0 panel 🙂

That's the model I've been trying to get, but I can't find it anywhere. It was on Amazon.ca a few weeks ago, but only for a few hours. When I was about to buy it, they no longer had it. Now I don't even see it on Amazon.com. Did you manage to buy one?
