Since the picture is not to clear, I can only guess...
If you only have some burn marks, and nothing on the socket has melted,
leaving all the pin-holes intact, you should be able to reuse the MB.
What happend, was the CPU cooler failing ?
If the CPU was getting fried by a problem with the MB, you might fry the next one as well.....
