Just a little update.
I did manage to get card 2 to detect ram after changing out the junk bus switches from Aliexpress.
That was after I first swapped the ram twice, and changed the CPLD with the C version but I got there in the end.

And the lesson is, children, never buy chips from AliExpress if you can at all help it, and assume that they're probably bad anyway.

Certainly learned that lesson, it can be expensive to be cheap.
