Can we get a gpu that just has some ddr5 slots in it?
You would need so many channels for that to be viable.

Why not many little simple sockets in which pop as many memory chips as needed?
ddr5 was just a placeholder in the above statement, whatever works. TPTB are welcome to release a line of gpu-ram with appropriate connections.
