You could fix those traces (well, I mean send it to a pro to fix, doesn't have to be a PS3/console specific "repairman") but you could have also done some damage to the components themselves by powering it on after the damage was done. If it's just the RSX damaged, you (..they) can swap it for a matching replacement, but if the CPU is damaged, it's more or less a write off. Hopefully it's just a cut connection..

Feel free to correct me anyone!

Such a typical place for damage like that though, 1cm to the left (at a guess by scale) and nobody would care, but of course it has to be one of THE most important millimeters on the motherboard that it happens.. I feel your pain!
