Bent usb 3 headers

[Gapehorn]

Is there any way to straighten the usb 3 headers on the motherboard? accidentally bent mine and i need the front connectors to work.

Needle nose pliers would probably do the trick. Make sure you turn the PC off and flip the power switch on the back of the power supply to off before attempting to straighten them though.

carefully bend them back using something like a flathead screwdriver.... no garanties for success though. If you post an image I may be able to tell you wether it is doable or not.

Can you get a picture close up?  Zooming in gives nothing

 

And perhaps at a slight angle if  possible

Should be possible. Just be careful.
