[SOLVED] 27" Odyssey G7 Gaming Monitor

Hello,

I recently purchased this monitor, and I got a cable which according to videos is a PC cable that extends USB connections, I am not sure if that's the case but I can't find the correct image of it on Google to confirm it is the right one that the video is talking about, my question is do I actually need it?
As far as I know you simply need the power cable and the HDMI/DP cable, nothing else, although I got another cable which is what I am trying to figure out which does what exactly, if someone bought it or knows what I am talking about from the little information given and can help me with it I would appreciate it.

If this is the cable you are referring to, then you monitor has build in USB3 ports.

To enable the ports connect the flat one to you computer and the other to your monitor.


It is not needed to if you don't want to use the USB ports on the monitor

All you need is the power cable and the cable from your video card. Some of the newer monitors are coming with USB extensions.
