You recently connected an RGB strip to the two RGB connectors on the motherboard. You noticed a strong smell of melted plastic and saw that the connectors had become damaged. What happened?

The plastic side of the motherboard shows slight melting marks and emits a faint burning odor. It’s been running this PC for about a week, and I noticed it right after connecting the LEDs.
