> Buy From One of the Regions Below > Egypt

:-/

But, because I'm a good sport, I actually chased a couple of those links figuring that I could convert Egyptian Pound into USD but <https://www.sigma-computer.com/en/search?q=CXL%20R5X4> is "No results", and similar for the other ones that I could get to even load

Yeah I saw the same. I've been keeping an eye on the CXL world for ~5 years and so far it's 99% announcements, unveilings and great predictions. But the only CXL cards a consumer/small business can buy are some experimental-ish 64GB/128GB cards that you can actually buy today. Haven't seen any of my larger clients use it either. Both Intel Optane and DSSD storage efforts got discontinued after years of fanfare, from technical point of view, I hope that the same doesn't happen to CXL.

I think Meta has already rolled out some CXL hardware for memory tiering. Marvell, Samsung, Xconn and many others have built various memory chips and switching hardware up to CXL 3.0. All recent Intel and AMD CPUs support CXL.

That is pretty hilarious. I wonder what’s the reason behind this. Maybe they wanted plausible deniability in case someone tried to buy it (“oh the phone lines were down, you’ll have to go there to buy one”).

I think someone just forgot to delete an option somewhere and it "crept in", and it really isn't supposed to have a "buy" link at all at this point.

Ok, I rented a camel and went to the specified location, but there was nothing there but some scorpions and an asp. What gives?
