The 24-Pin Connector will not go all the way in.

I need help, no matter how hard I try... I just cannot put this guy in all the way! My Nails are kinda screwed up and my skin on my thumbs and fingers is near worn out of how hard I was trying to push this in... I need a method of some other, my thumbs and fingers really hurt now 

 

See in the pic(s):

 

Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.

That is how mine is unfortunately . Just make sure it can power on. If it can slide out without unlatching it, then it's a problem. That's how mine is right now. I'm still deciding if I should RMA it or buy a completely new PSU

Quick question, is it facing the right way? If so, then take it back out and plug it back in. I wouldn't suggest smashing it in. Does your computer power on though?

let me guess, is it a corsair psu?

I'm joking, please don't try to force it in.

Yep, It's in the correct way, Tried taking it in and back out.

It's not the CPU, the mobo can be stubborn too

 I have a sense of humor, but okay

Hell yeah it is!

And also, I don't have all the parts yet so i'm not powering it on yet... Waiting on CPU and GPU

Same question because I don't see the latches where the clips hook on to.

Of course It's getting more and more common that corsair psu's have issues with their 24-pin. Try to RMA it. They probably will give you a new one. Or at least a new cable.

I got this one in a shop and lost the receipt, damm, screw me... But this has to go in one way or another!

Yikes. You don't need a GPU to power on the computer, but definitely a CPU. Try to get it before you can't return the PSU to the store if you bought it at a store, otherwise you will have to do a RMA through Corsair.

[Max Dyba]

Am I in deep enough to get some power?

There's only one surefire way to find out.

Thanks for the info

Looks like i'm going to have to wait for amazon to deliver my CPU....

It should be fine, what you also can do is order a sleeved psu cable for it. Not an extension cord but a sort of replacement for it. Should fix it too And it's a lot cheaper than a new psu

My PSU cable is sleeved But anyways, I think I've it in far enough...

You can use flat screwdriver. I had same trouble with Seasonic PSU and with all of its cables. Used large flat screwdriver to push them down.
