    Some 24 pin plugs have that pin, some don’t. It’s fine when it’s not there. That pin doesn’t actually get used for anything afaik.

    Someone on the assembly line probably got hungry and ate it, I know I would have

  3. It used to be a -5v rail. It isn’t used by anything manufactured in this century.

  4. Imagine googling 24 pin pc connector to find out

    Next time you see one you’ll usually see a missing pin where it’s sposed to go on the board as well like with RGB.

    Pc building is completely just expensive lego

    This gets posted every day. I understand you’re concerned something you’ve bought is faulty, but jeez maybe google it first?

    For reference, a search or the group shows it being asked twice this week before this one.

    Edit: ok, I get it. You love repetitive questions being asked and re-asked, time and time again.

    Great work Reddit, never change.

    Someone should pin this, this question is always coming back.

    It *could* be a dead pin. Is there a wire going into that hole from the back side or do you see a wire dangling from the wire harness anywhere?

    Is there a wire going to tbe back side of it…?

    Yes and there will be a missing pin on the motherboard too

  11. It’s so you know which direction you plug it into
