MOTHERBOARD CABLES

[Gorge]

Hey so is it bad if i pluged the motherboard cables in with force and the cpu 8 plug is on an angel?  Kind of  torquing the Cpu plug the wrong way?

Seems fine.

If it's actually pulling the mobo, then it's not ideal though.

Ok but it can have tension? On the plug? Like on an angel?

Depends how much tension, but generally it's better to avoid it.

The angle itself is fine, but if the cable is pulling pretty hard on the motherboard it's bad. You don't want to have to flex your power cable or the board.

It doesn't look like there's tension to me.

OK, what is considered tension? Like a little bit of force pulling it to one side? Or like literally so much to where  it’s actually bending it? sorry I’m new

and thanks btw

Kind of how if you look close, the wires bend to the left? This is fine?

So is there a chance I can damage my mother board. by having a little bit of tension on my motherboard? (where the CPU plugs in)

[Gorge]

what I mean is the 8 plug or whatever its called

there is a different between pressure and not using the correct cable or the cable being put on the wrong way

if it works, it works, its only the asethetics if you want to make it look cleaner by plugging them all closer together. If you plugged them in and everything is working, it's fine. Unless it's on the inside. That's a different story
