The SS10SX uses different VSIMMs from the SS20. ( 70ns VRAM vs. 60ns VRAM )

Nobody has made an aftermarket VSIMM because it's not a VSIMM, it is
literally an entire video card on a memory stick. It has the graphics
chip, the RAMDAC, the clock generator, and a DMA engine. The VSIMM
outputs analog video and clock pulses.
