Will this scratch affect my motherboard?

 

[alexoiu]

Most probably, not.

It's not a big deal isn't it or should I use some pencil to cover it?

 

[alexoiu]

No. Leave it like that.

I'm sorry to ask you again just worried too much. It's not an issue isn't it?? Is it totally safe ??

Its not touching any circuitry or traces - itll be fine, you've just scratched the coating on the board which is lacquered on to protect hard layered circuit traces.

If you must cover it (which is completely unnecessary) use acrylic paint - pencil would be a bad idea because it contains graphite which is conductive.

Yes, it's ok, if pc working.

Well now I've found another scratch in that picture. And it looks like it's touching traces :/

Again, nothing to worry about. Try installing the board and testing.
