I recently started my first computer build and need some guidance. I'm using an NXZT H440 case and a MSI Z170 motherboard. I'm attempting to connect the front panel connectors as described in the mobo guide, but am not quite sure I'm doing everything right. As far as I can tell I have everything going where its suppoused to be going, but no matter which way I turn the wire I can't get the connector to 'click' into the motherboard. Are they just supposed to be loose against it? Here's a picture of my wires in front of the area where I'm supposed to put them
Yeah, the front panel connectors don't click in place like you might find on SATA connectors. Some motherboards come with a jumper block to make it easier, but outside of that, the connectors haven't changed in over 20 years.
