I worked through the disassembly of my Red Devil 5700XT to clean it, but missed disconnecting the RGB header before removing the heatsink and shroud assembly from the PCB. The data/ground pads are intact, only the mounting pads are damaged, making it easy to replace them and reattach the crucial connectors. However, I’m struggling to locate a compatible replacement header. The label on the PCB next to the header reads "MJ1005," yet no relevant results appear even in alternative searches. No search terms seem to yield useful information, not even on Bing or other sites. The only reference I have is a Reddit post from a month ago, but it lacks any links or details about where to obtain the part. The photo I shared shows exactly what I’m trying to find.

The image isn't very sharp from the side. It seems to resemble either a mini Molex or just a standard edit. Or possibly a PicoBlade Molex. https://www.molex.com/molex/products/family/picoblade

Thanks for your feedback. Your adjustment with the personal photo seems to have improved clarity. The connector width is approximately 1cm.

It might be a JST or Molex version. Most probably Molex. Check the official sites for details.

Did you locate this connector? I also knocked it off by mistake while cleaning my red devil 6800xt.

It seems this thread might be quite old. I found the connector you're looking for—a Molex PanelMate with a 1.25mm pitch. The exact model is available on DigiKey here: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/deta...470/711491
