I am actually already done with the mobo :) Took a needle and very carefully bent the pins back. They work like small springs.

1. There is no other meaning of "warning" there's no impending danger, or Caution to be taken into account.

2. People are going to call people stupid either way, get used to it there's always going to be trolls.

3. You can try to stick a metal pin there as replacement (the same sort or metal used of course) just like what he did in the video. It's just going to be a bit of a different scenario then this. Just try whatever, he winged it in this video too lol.

@Hardy123Zhao

1st of that is not the only meaning of warning

2nd I said it because I don't want annoying comments on that I am dumb because I bent the pins even if I didn't

[TheplanBpill23]

Fen-num. LOL, damn Canadians.

[Hardy123Zhao]

@nAcolz why do i need to be warned? Warnings are use when you trying to indicate a possible or impending danger. Just sayin

[Itechnohead]

BEND IT STRIGHT? What was that ...... :-0
