Well yeah, I think I managed to broke something on my mobo, but I'm not sure what it is and how it effects (probably can't use mobo at all)

What is this small broken component?

It's a mosfet transistor, i would guess by its location it is a part of the voltage regulation of the RAM. Are you sure that's the problem your motherboard doesn't work? If you are still within warranty I would ask for a replacement, otherwise you can buy a similar transistor and solder it. You always have the option of buying a new motherboard but that is obviously more expensive.

If it's a scratch not a crack, and you can't see anything shiny/metallic you might be OK - the plastic is rather thick.
New transistor is an option; you can usually buy them off ebay for a few dollars.

Well, when I turned computer on - I heard *Zap* and some plastic smell and immediately took powers off and tried to search damages, and that was the only one I found.
My system (now only cpu, psu and mobo) only starts only for 2-3s (fans only, no beeps or nothing)

Well I can see some metal inside.
But well, maybe I should go to vendor and ask if there is anything to do or just buy a new one.

If it's still in warranty, return it. If not, you might as well have a go at fixing it. It might have fried your RAM though.
