12 pin nvidia gpu adapter damaged while doing cable management

I have a computer i was doing cable management on and noticed three of the pins of my GPU adapter were pulled. I plugged them back in but I’m not confident in plugging it back in to the PC. Does anyone know if it is safe to use or or to get an authentic Nvidia adapter?

I recently decided to build a older pc with some spare parts i have (i bought the rest of what i needed on marketplace). Everything works good besides the ssd. I bought the ssd on marketplace and it shows in bios majority of the time but it doesnt show up all the time. When i go to install windows onto the ssd, it shows as having 0.0Mb. I put it inside my main computer and it shows up in disk management and i formatted it so it’s not unallocated anymore, but still the same result when i put it in the build. I don’t think the ssd is bad since it reads on my personal computer. I thought maybe the sata cable but i used the same sata cable when testing it on my main computer and i tested it 2 or 3 times. Anyone have any suggestions or things to try on the mobo? Incase anyone is wondering, the mobo is an asus z170-premium and the ssd a Samsung 870 evo ssd
