You're correct that socketed RAM is important for the project;
mainboards with onboard RAM usually have no SPD memory at all,
so the SMBus may not be at all accessible.

Any particular mainboard might not be so important as long as the
SMBus can be accessed somewhere; possibly a cellphone repair store
can help solder the three SMBus wires to a small connector for the
purpose of the project.

But it would be great to also consider what the user story is for
people who want to use this on other mainboards.

Ideally it shouldn't be neccessary to buy a niche product like a RAM
breakout adapter; it would be great to also explore more ways to
access the SMBus signals, e.g. PCI Express optionally has SMBus,
smart batteries have it, etc.


Kind regards
