I have a Corsair RM450. I have used it for a year, and it works fine. I am trying to do a tad of cable management, but when I press the little nub that locks the cable in place as hard as I can and pull, nothing happens. It looks like I'm not pressing the nub hard enough for it to go up and unlock. What am I doing wrong?

the plastic could simply be no good there. wiggling the cable from side to side at the base (with care not to break the port) could help. also if the latch is not lifting, perhaps try slipping a butter knife under it.

Maybe the locking tab got stuck and isn't disengaging because there isn't enough clearance to lift out of the way.
Try to push the connector in first (give the tab the most clearance possible to lift unobstructed), then press the locking tab before trying to pull the connector out.
If you still have no luck, try wiggling the connector first to get it a little loose.

I've had similar trouble getting the 24-pin cable out of the motherboard from my 550 G2, so I know what sort of boat you are in. In the end, it just took a lot of force to unplug it, but it did so successfully.
How hard exactly are you pulling it?
