This is my motherboard called msi A520M_A Pro The problem is when I was installing the air radiator I scratched a path in the board and the computer is still working and I did pressure tests on the processor and nothing happened except high temperatures and I entered the BIOS and it is still working but I am afraid that any piece of the device will be damaged or I have lost an important job in the board or any capacitor will be damaged in it so please tell me what is the function of this path and is it ImportantΒ knowing that it is close to the processor Socket and what to do for him to ensure that the device works for a long time in the future and will the board work in the future or not please reply pleaseπŸ™

It'll be fine. its just the surface paint basically being damaged

Β 

Keep in mind these low end boards are usually so crappy that anything more than a 6 core overwhelms their vrms and makes them make the cpu slower.

Need clearer pictures to determine if there is any huge damage to the traces. From the pic itself it looks like the varnish layer was scraped off and since the motherboard is working just keep it as it is and don't fiddle with it anymore.

And if you still are worried about it then take it to a repair shop and get solder mask applied on it.

I think that should answer it.

Β 

It takes a good enough of damage to get through the surface layer and to the first actual layer of a PCB. Surface scratches are just that, surface scratches.
