if memory (mine) is not spilling bits all over the floor and
carpet, the 560 used the same 64meg memory part that the
760X and 765 series used..

i have a good relationship with goldenram (for years)..
they still give lifetime warranty and claim to have what you
need for anything..
economics dictate that they don't do a production run for
one part, though..
i can try and get one, but this is new parts and thus
retail..
