I don't know what kind of answer you are looking for. Maybe if you chew on them or spray them with water? Do you suspect that your connectors are damaged?

How can you damage the connectors of a PSU?

By cutting them I would suppose? Perhaps water/liquids too.

I dont quite understand? You damaged the connectors by placing them back in the box? Unless you bent the end of the connectors, there shouldn't be a problem. 

Please quote our replys so we get a notification and can reply easily. Never cheap out on a PSU, or I will come to watch the fireworks.

Placing it a box, taking out and placing in again isn't going to damage it; maybe if you do this 1000 times and or toss it around while its in the box, but otherwise it's probably going to be fine.

Just putting them back in the box isnt going to do anything to them. Don't worry about it, they're probably fine (Unless you can see obvious damage to them).

You can damage them with anything that can do damage xD

 

Well realistically, inserting things wrong is where you could do the most damage ;)

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.
