OI shield

[Flowey]

Am I the only one here who thinks the most outrageous and frustrating thing in building a pc is getting the IO ports into the IO shield?

Yes lol. The most frustrating part for me is truing to figure out how to keep my OCD calm while trying to cable manage the 50 million cables in the back of a case that was obviously not designed to take that many cables! LOL

And OI shield you say? Sounds like a rude shield

[Trey222]

YES.

[TheGamingBarrel]

So dont use it? Or better yet dont use a case at all.

I bend the metallic tabs on the IO shield in a way they don't get stuck. Once you get used to doing so, they aren't difficult at all.

Only if you use motherboards that have I/O shields with the little grounding tabs not all of them do

[LogicalDrm]

Imo harder is to fit case front panel connectors to pins with sausage sized fingers. Or placing fan on my U14S.
