Okay, I've searched this up, and people say wiggle it and its okay to use force because the 24 pin connector is just like that, but i don't understand. My fingers hurt as I am typing this right now. I am a 16 year old boy, and I really doubt a standard procedure is physically beyond me.

The clip is also down. What do i do? I am pulling it, the freaking chassis lifts up but that damn pin won't budge

Hi my friend,
What exactly are you trying to do?

Is it to remove the connector from the motherboard or is to connect it?
On its side there will be a thin small plastic flip, this one has to be pressed from the upper side inwards, so it will release the "hook" outwards on its bottom side.

Then just press your fingers from side to side and pull the connector upwards.
Don't overdue it. if you just wiggle a lite bit it will came loose.

The reason for this "lock" is to make sure that this connector don't fall off by accident while the user is using the PC for important things.

Best regards from Sweden
