Is my Gateway 2000 P4D-66 fixable? board was smoking

I accidentally put my really old Intel processor in wrong in my really old Gateway 2000 P4D-66 and it started smoking from the CPU voltage pins.

"Take it to an electronics recycling centre, if you have one in your area.

It is totally unfixable.

You will have destroyed even the traces sandwiched in the layers of the motherboard.

Sorry but always check and double check everything you do with electronics.

Carpenters do the same with measuring the wood they are working with."
