I need to obtain the CPU, but it seems you already have one without it.

I believe you might need to fix a few pins at first, though it’s unclear if those are essential. If only a small number of pins were bent, repairing it could be fairly straightforward. However, seeing so many pins crushed and signs of corrosion suggests this board may not last long. It could still serve as a useful practice piece for learning socket or CPU repairs, but overall it probably won’t be very helpful right now.
