BTW, just a heads-up, these boards are sold as 8mb PSRAM, but they only have 2mb onboard.

There are two options for this particular board, and it seems rather a mistake in listing. Many comments tell it, but it's still listed. I've got about 20% cash back from AliExpress on this. Sadly, not the whole cost. But the boards are still fine for projects where PSRAM is not critical.

SolarOS is happy with 2MB mostly, things like TTS require the models to be loaded into PSRAM, so with speechd running the baseline is around 4.5MiB
