Just wrapping up my rebuild, I'm having trouble connecting the EK Waterblock LED cable to my motherboard (Strix X570-I) with the Gen2 LED Connector. The plug isn't fitting properly, and I'm starting to bend some pins. Is this the right approach?

The EKWB guidelines seem inconsistent. Checking the connector end that attaches to the board reveals either 3 or 4 pins. If it appears to have 3 pins, the manual incorrectly labels it as 4 pins.

Four connections feed a voltage range from 5 volts up to 12 volts.
