While assembling my computer for the first time, I attempted to connect my 24-pin cable to the motherboard but didn’t notice a clear click. Upon closer examination, it was clear the connection wasn’t secure. I spent many hours looking online for solutions, yet nothing provided a clear answer. I applied considerable pressure and moved the board, but no pins appeared damaged. Here’s a snapshot of the situation: PSU – https://pcpartpicker.com/product/nhC48d/...850g-pcie5 Motherboard – https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Pz2WGX/...-plus-wifi

It seems the device isn't connected. Try applying more pressure. You might want to place a finger or two near the board while you press.

I've attempted several times. Please note that the cable won't come out unless I release the clip.

Because there are so many pins theres a massive amount of friction compared to the other pins, it does just require an awful amount of force to both put it in and take it back out, try wiggling it while pushing it in or pulling it out

Check the plug and socket for any signs of damage or unauthorized items.

It seems unclear, but it appears to be in good condition to you.
