Help with loose cable (lemmy.world)

I bought this PC 2 months ago. Yesterday, I had to transport it by car. Even though I packed it in the original box with foam, when I tried to set it up again, I noticed that this cable, which I had secured with electrical tape, was loose. I'm sure it wasn't loose before.

I know it's some kind of power cable, but I don't know where to plug it in (I'm not a hardware guy).

Note: The PC is turning on and functioning normally. I don't know if it's related or just a coincidence, but my headphones that I usually connect to the back stopped working.

Can someone shed some light on this?

For OP:

Header = those silver things that stick straight out and there are several groups of them across the board. Usually they have small text beside them somewhere. Usually fans are labeled something like cha_fa0 or something.

It really has a label CHA_FAN1. Since all other fans are working I will assume this cable was stuck somewhere.

Thank you.
