    24-pin trouble!

    I've already posted on the WoW forums but to no avail. So I thought I should give MMOC a try.

    Here's my problem. So I got the parts for my new PC yesterday (first time builder) and I've got almost everything except the GPU in and thought I should start plugging some cables in, it was all fine until I got to the 24-pin connector. I can't plug the 24-pin power into the motherboard, it gets about halfway and then just stops. It has a seperate 4 pin besides the other 20 which goes in fine by itself but the 20 on its own or connected with the 4 gets stuck. I've tried 2 different 24-pin power cables and neither will go in. I pushed really hard but the motherboard had A LOT of stress on it and I don't think I could push any harder without breaking it.

    I'm using a ASUS sabertooth Z77 and a corsair AX850 if that helps at all.
