No, those are the contact points, typically an automated testing machine or personnel check the card to ensure functionality, PCIE slots naturally make these marks and they are no concern unless a trace is broken, you are fine as long as device manager in windows picks up the GPU.

The EVGA one is my new one and it has teeth marks from the pci-e slot and the other is my old card which has sort of the same thing.

Would this cause them not to work????

Thanks in advance
