Do you screw in both bolts on VGA cables, just the top one or ignore them altogether?

    Ever think you got it unscrewed and accidentally yank the standoff from the PCB?

      I work in tech support. I haven’t done this, but a user I’ve worked with absolutely has. I have a photo around here somewhere, if I recall correctly he actually ripped the wires out of the cable lmao!

      Edit: the picture. Guess it wasn’t wires out of the cable hah.
