Best people can get are #NewOldStock #GTX1030 or worse like #GT710 or got forbid #GT210|s which noone should buy unless they are stuck in some hellhole like #Brazil where #customs make thibgs so expensive that people are glad if they can buy their used work computers (minus HDD/SDD) from their employers for an absurdly high price cuz #refurbishers and #UserMarket either din't exist or just full of shit re: prices!

@mos_8502 personally, I'd love to see more of those developments because getting #NewOldStock or #KnownWorking #used #RAM can be a real nightmare and having something where one at worst can just chug a #PSRAM chip on, set a #DIP to limit it's size and a connector for the refresh power if needed may be a better option long-term...

Espechally with those super old systems where all the RAM modules are just on a single bus / channel and thus unless it's like #Rambus garbage one doesn't even need to terminate contacts but could in theory just make a system believe it's "fully stacked" with a single SIMM.

It'll also help people like @ActionRetro having to cannibalize machines to max some out...

Also yean, some nice #NeoRetro #8bit machines would benefit from it as well...

My project for the New Year holidays is to make a faithful replica of this WW2-era Montgomery Ward 101 jacket.
I bought this jacket new-old-stock about 20 years ago, and it is still in its original raw condition.
I plan to make a nearly exact replica, except for the size and the hardware, as it's almost impossible to find the exact same parts.
The buttons, rivets and cinch buckle are all generic and made of copper-plated steel.
