Question Loose Wifi antenna connectitons

Well...that was a PITA...had to remove the rear 140mm fan, video card, unplug EVERYTHING from the motherboard...left the AIO cooler in place, phll the board. Only 4 screws holding the IO shield and heat sink in place. A couple of turns with a 1/4" drive socket (no ratchet, just a screwdriver with hex adapter) and that's done. Now comes the fun part of reconnecting everything...and hoping I get it right.

Ooh, you have one of those dumb cartridge cards. Those leads are very short and glued into place. Stick the card into a toaster oven to melt the glue off the internal mount.

When I was monkeying around with a GB to swap a better WiFi card the glue ripped one of the OE connectors off the card.

Bah...of course...in the process of trying to re-route the ARGB connectors and power for the 6 fans...I got "lost." 🤬 Well...not lost exactly...but I AM going to have to redo it all...and, of course, MSI, in their infinite wisdom, put two of the ARGB connectors on the bottom of the board...too far away to connect to things. I'll have to order a couple of extension cables.
