Is anyone know where can find a CPU replacement for my dead 510?

most likely no worth it, these cpu and I could be wrong are soldered from underneath the chip, very hard to remove and also a pain to install.

Just a thought I am sure Skynerd will be in to let you know the best options

Look at the spacing of the pins on that chip, all 4 sides too. I have read of success in changing these, but I won't even attempt one. Getting the bad one up, then getting a good one down, and having it work when you are done.....good luck. Then where you gonna find a replacement?
I know it's a shame to have to dump one of these, just pull the HD and save the rest for parts. You can get them for about $150 or less, if you watch closely.
