I'm just wiring up my very first PC build and have a question regarding the power connectors on my motherboard (an X99 deluxe II) and my Corsair AX1200i Psu , and the motherboard manual is a little vague.

I have connected up both the 24 pin and 8 pin power cables to my PSU but do i still need to connect a cable from my PSU to the 4 pin 12v connector on the motherboard too?

I ask as there wasnt suitable cable that came with the PSU which leads me to think it is not required. Is this correct?
