Hey guys today i opened my computer to see if i could make a better cable management (first time im opening a computer inside and messing around) and i want to reroute the 24 pin connector, i tried to pull it out while holding the side button but no luck (pc is prebuild so it could be glued) when i gave up i noticed that the connector was not fully pushed in and i applied some pressure and which flexed the motherboard about 1 to 2 centimeters. now to my main point im afraid i could have damaged the motherboard and its not visible yet (btw didnt hear no creeks or snapping sounds) should i be worried and what should i look for to see if theres any damage done. once again im a noobie and im sorry if this was confusing but i tried to describe what happened as best as i could (motherboard is pegatron btw)


Thank you for your answers guys, i would also like to ask do you guys know how i could push the pin connector all the way in cause it seems to be 1 milimiter out but idk if thats really a problem or not
