Sorry, you can have a cheap-ish FPGA that came out 10 years ago, or a new FPGA that costs more than your car and requires a $3000 software license to even program. Those are the only options allowed.

OMG, price per one new unit of those XCVU095 varies form 4k to 35k depending on the store. The variability!

Where are they pulling those PCB chunks from that have cheap Ultrascale+ chips?
