So, I assembled my new PC last Friday, but the front audio jacks weren't working. I even disconnected and reconnected the connector once, and it didn't do anything. Well, I did it once more, this time trying to position the cable differently. It worked, so I put it where it was originally, and it was still working (and still is). It's a bit of a tight fit, so the cable's a bit twisted, but it's twisted a bit differently now, so maybe that was the cause. I kind of suspect the issue is actually that I didn't line up the connector correctly and missed the other row of pins entirely... twice, since I had one earlier attempt at fixing the issue. I almost managed to do that now too, which leads me to think this is what was causing the issue. Definitely not my proudest moment if that's the case, and also not something I expected to go wrong.

It's always the little things that end up causing the most annoying troubles. But at least you managed to fix it.

The case to mobo connectors are a nightmare to get every time.

I only know three things for certain when I get a new case: it will have good airflow, the bottom dust filter will be removed from the front (or side) and it will come with this:

And I'm willing to give up the bottom filter requirement to get a cse with one of those.
