I wish I could spend more and don't want to elaborate on my financial situation but if absolute push comes to shove the $180 box is pretty much the absolute maximum amount I can put together.
The simple question is what boxes are a safe gamble?

I just want the thing to run without trying to get something better by assembling my own controller from a kit or carefully selected parts.
You all know how it is to have 10 different things that absolutely need to be done and half of them are 3 person jobs with just the 1 of you to do them.
It was a year sitting on this machine after I assembled it getting together the location space, a table, a rebuilt PC that's working and so forth to get it to that point the controller failed after the first few tests lol
