Msi gaming pro carbon capacitor broke

Hello I just ordered a new gpu so while I was taking out my old one I slipped and broke a capacitor off should I get another mobo or do you think I'll be fine here's a picturehttps://m.imgur.com/a/xElDL

New mobo.

Have you tried the board yet? If it's in a non-critical section such as the audio, you can still use it. The picture really isn't clear, but I for one would look into replacing the capacitor myself. Certainly cheaper than scrapping what is probably otherwise a perfectly fine motherboard.

I've been playing for about a day and everything is fine I turned off audio in the bios because my headset is usb anyway the thing is I have a 1080ti on the way and I'm stressing that my mobo isn't gonna work I'm using integrated right now

If you've tried using the board after breaking off the capacitor, and the board has so far been fine, I wouldn't worry about it.

That's what I'm thinking but do you think that capacitor is for the pci slot or just the audio I don't have a gpu to test it until my new card arrives

No idea what the capacitor is for. Could be audio, network, or any of the other integrated devices. If it was for one of the PCI-e slots, I would assume it would be oriented closer, either above or below the slot.
