Resistor/Capacitor broke off, anyone knows if it matters? in c/pcmasterrace@lemmy.world

Audio from jack appears... to be working fine. Obviously I am just going by ears and some songs playing, so I can't tell if some minor frequency or noise is present.

Also some people guessed that this might be in the audio area, so only audio might be affected.

So far, I don't see any issue (audio plays too, though I can't like tell if some frequency is missing or something, I mean, it sounds fine).

What are the chances if I keep using the PC like, this could damage the other (way more expensive) parts or cause a fire?

So, I had some issues with installing the GPU in the case, and the GPU bottom (those metals things at the bottom) ended up scratching part of the motherboard. From what I can tell, there's a bunch of similar components all the way up, so I'd think there's redundancy, so I guess it's not that important. Here is a picture (I was told some people couldn't open postimg, both links have same image):

PC boots fine into bios, fans work, stuff are recognized, mouse and keyboard also works, but I haven't really done much beyond that.

Motherboard is: MSI B650 Gaming Plus Wifi

It's located here, and on them, it is written K72 then vertically smaller K2 (the 2 has an underline), as you can see in the above image too:

I was told to ask here, and the best guess from what I've been told is that this is this:

Paralleling power metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) is a common wayto reduce conduction losses and spread power dissipation over multiple devices to limit the maximum junction temperature.

Which could mean that the others could pick up the slack.

Should I get a new motherboard?

Thanks.

Also updated the post with better quality image and another link added.

So I guess, what this means is having one scrapped off or failing isn't a big issue (because of built-in redundancy accounting exactly for that)?

It's like well, here I guess:

You might be able to find a better resolution image of the board if you look, on them, it is written K72 then vertically smaller K2 (the 2 has an underline).

There are so many as you say, so makes me think, there's enough redundancy to leave it be.
