You grip the connector and clamp, unlock it, and pull. It’s not hard.

Don’t let these other units make you feel bad. I’m with you. Been building PCs since 1997 and I struggle with the 24 pin cable every time.

Just watch how much the board flexes. He makes it look easy because he’s not a giant pussy and worried about a pcb made of fiber glass and metal breaking. Pull the 24-pin like a man.

Pulled muh usb 3.0 connector off with the pins still in. Put it back carefully and somehow it still works. Had to Google the fix but it’s a common problem with that connector / header.

I dunno about “easily” – took five good pulls, had to change up his grip twice.
Maybe we don’t need to be out there *actively* looking for just every possible way to praise tech jesus.

Prolly not the first time a 24 pins is inserted and removed on that board. Everytime you insert and pull out the 24 pin its gonna be easier.

Whenever I do it, it feels like my motherboard’s going to fall apart so in the end it’s always “Fuck it” and I just yank it with increasing force each tug.
