    What about sata cables, i bought a m/board and no sata cables were included with it
    Some manufacturer's will and won't include them.

    I seem to recall getting two SATA cables with both of my previous Asus motherboards.

    If it helps, this what I bought for my last upgrade:

    I basically just swapped motherboard, CPU, RAM, cooler and graphic card.

    If you download manual for your motherboard (link), there's a page with package contents listed on it - included in the listing, is 1x SATA data cable and 1x SATA power cable.
