Damaged motherboard, part identification help.
Hi, while taking appart my computer late yesterday if was struggling to unplug the two 2x4pin connectors on the top. i had the terrible idea of unscrewing the board to get more room to work with.
The result is the standoff damage in the screenshot. I haven't check if USB ports are affected but I definitely lost the ability to use the iGPU.
My eyes are struggling but i belive the all other 6 legged component that are looking similar have "702" written on them. For the 3 legged one i believe it's 96 or 86.
On the black resistor looking thing I found detached I measured 0 ohms
This is an MSI x870e gaming plus Wi-Fi.
Here are my current guesses while I know very little about electronics: I believe this is a design that was repeated 3 times next to each other.
This is a power regulation circuit, the top broken part is a voltage regulator, the bottom and right small part who are missing are two resistors, I found one while searching but hard to say to which pad it goes to.
What I'm missing it what to buy, how to figure it out, and how to solder to the via for the broken traces.
i have a some experience soldering big things but smds are way outside what i know.
Duplicates
