Looks like fingerprints OP
Ryan Torres
Saw a thing about this the other day on some tech tuber. It's nothing to worry about it's just from the manufacturing process.
Andrew Gonzalez
do you have a link?
Jason Hughes
I have no idea who it was. Probably Steve from Hardware Unboxed in his mini PC build he did recently.
Henry Gonzalez
or it might have been that Wendell video on Thread Ripper
Isaac Sullivan

You should get some 99 Isopropyl alcohol and gently with the back with a fresh pair of programming socks.
Chase Robinson
Have you even tried using it to see if it works?
Oliver Rogers
No, the rest of the parts have not come in yet.
Robert Foster
I'm with him. Those look more like a fingerprint than scratches.
Noah Gonzalez
Clean it with some acetone.
Ayden Bell
This looks like chipping to me.
Matthew Reed
Wipe that spot by hand. It could be contamination or light reflection. Or another pic from opposite angle would help
Brody Mitchell
My old i7 has little pits on all of its dots from the motherboard pins poking it.

Brandon Parker
