Motherboard Pin Stuck

[Harv J]

I was holding my motherboard today and I flipped it and one of the big pins on the backside of my motherboard got stuck in my cotton jumper, is there anything I should be worried about??.

Its the ASUS STRIX Z270F.

Not really, as long as you remove any threads still stuck to the board.

Motherboards are pretty sturdy against electrostatic shock these days. If you assemble the computer and it works, then everything is fine.

Thank you so much, I got this board today and Im only young so I get paranoid about these things,is it possible that the pin could of moved out of position?

There is no damage.

Then I guess - there's no reason to worry also.

If I plugged everything in and my motherboard is broken will it damage other components?

It depends on damage type.
From your description - any damage is unlikely.
