Hello there!I am a first time pc builder and i am having a huge issue with my pc atm.I have an MSI 970 GAMING Mobo and a corsair RM750X psu but the 24pin con. WON'T connect fully.The 24pin con. is 20+4pins but from what i can see those4pins do not go all the way in.Any ideas on how to fix this?I am too scared to apply too much force on the mobo in case it brakes!

Could i seperate the 4 pins from the 20 pins and try to plug in the 4 first and then the 20?? Will that create any issues with my system?

Make sure the 8 pin connector that you're trying to plug into the cpu says cpu, the gpu uses an 8 pin connector too but they aren't interchangeable. As for the 24 pin connector, does the clip snap into place when you try to plug it in? These connectors will only work one way so if it doesn't work try flipping it and seeing if it plugs in that way, you should hear the clip snap into place.
