B or pass with no GPA impact?

Hello /sci/,

I'm in a fairly good master's program for robotics engineering. So far I have a 4.0 about 80% of the way through with only some business classes and a final capstone course at the end. My last really technical and difficult class is coming to an end and I think I'll be getting a B finally.

Due to covid my college is allowing students to take a pass after they receive their grade instead of the usual grade and it won't impact my GPA and will still give me the necessary credits.

Should I take the pass or is that more of a stain than just accepting the B and graduating with a ~3.9 GPA? I don't plan on getting a PHD.
