Hardware tinkerer fails spectacularly at building the world’s second worst graphics card, accidentally proving even crude TTL hacks can outlast expectations




  • Crude GPU design showed random glitches whenever the system attempted memory writes
  • iNapGPU struggled with environmental noise from simple USB cables
  • A 12MHz counter overclocked to 20MHz caused constant instability

An obscure project on GitHub shows how a hardware hobbyist tried to construct what he called the “second world’s worst video card,” a text-mode graphics card using only TTL gates.

Working under the handle Leoneq, he released the “iNapGPU” repository to document his experiment.
