What do you think the chances are that bubbling's just a trick of the light?

Life doesn't work that way. Study once in a fucking while.

8 out of 10.
Looks pretty glaring to me.

I meant light but my iPhone auto-corrected it.
>>57006366
it's fine. basically everything has esd protection in 2016
>>57006385
it's not fine. this is why there are so many marginal parts on shit these days, niggas can't take care of what they own.

It's not mine (yet), and please learn how static buildup works. Just because you build up a charge walking across carpet doesn't mean the carpet possesses "static" that goes around zapping things. That he put the parts on carpet is the last thing I'm worried about.

This.
OP it's ruined.
Also that looks like an old board.

You walk on it, it has a charge. Just because you can't feel it, doesn't mean it can't affect sensitive devices. Please fuck off. You obviously don't know shit, either, since you're worried about shit looking solder mask that affects literally nothing.

good job regurgitating memes idiot. nothing on that board is going to die from the static charge of carpet, but the bubbled mask could easily indicateq water damage and thus corroded traces. why dont you take your gaming rig back to /v/?
>>57006967
Fuck u

You're from the South, aren't you?

literally no cmos that you'd find on a motherboard made in the last decade will be damaged by the discharge from a carpet.
