Thank you. Didn't know that was a thing. I never had to buy an fpu so it was just built with the cpu so I never learned what it was.

What you can by is a ~~FPGU~~ FPGA :)
Basically a lego kit for a CPU you can program for different use cases which dont warrant cpu manufacturing at scale or prototyping

FPGA, but close enough.
