WELL i was repasting a cpu on a laptop i just bought. 600 australian dollarydoos for an i7 4720hq and 970m alienware 15 WHAT. A. STEAL. it only had minor aesthetic damage  and still came with the box.

Anyway. The factory paste goop was all over the caps so i decided to just clean it a little tiny bit incase the new paste touched it and somehow affected something. And *crack* FELL OFF

 

Can this be repaired? I have an extremely trained eye from nature of my work, im guessing its about 0.25x0.25x0.85mm

Is there a god in flesh on earth with the skill?

that really doesnt have a impact on anything since its not conductive.
