Vent: My sleeper build surprised me at a LAN party in Tulsa

Was at a friend's place in Tulsa last Saturday and my old Dell OptiPlex case, the one hiding a Ryzen 7 and a 3060 Ti, just refused to post after I moved it. Turns out the PCIe riser cable had wiggled loose from the GPU, but I only had 20 minutes before people started asking about my 'antique.' I reseated it with the panel off, swapped the riser for a direct mount, and it fired up first try. Anyone else deal with riser cables coming loose on transport, or do you just lock them down with zip ties?
