Worried about odd placement of fan-cable inside GPU

Jonilo5

Hi!
This is my first time building a computer and I noticed that in the GPU there one cable had an odd placement.

I haven't started up the computer yet (not entirely finished building it). But I am a little worried that it might be something wrong.

Also (little off topic but) does this 24-pin look fully in to you? I tried with a ruthless force I few times now, but it still doesn't look fully inside.

Not sure about the cable, but the 24 pin looks good to me.

did you touch it? if not then its fine, gpu fans are supposed to be like this, if it doesn't work you can RMA it

Nope, did never touch inside of the GPU.

GPU looks fine... fan cables can go in some pretty tight places

 

don't use ruthless force on your motherboard, if you've broken it you'll learn why

I know, I was super careful, but I thought perhaps I was too careful. I didn't over-force it tho.

Lol, yeah, that was what I was most afraid of. Haha :D

As long as the GPU-fan isn't shredding through the cable it is absolutely fine.

And this is my 24pin for almost 3years now:
