Next: DIY gold bars. Casting your own is super easy, barely an inconvenience. Just put the gold in a furnace! Does not cost much at all.

Recycling the broken ram sticks isn't done as far as I know so it kinda makes sense. New memory and used working sticks is hard to get. Broken sticks most likely not so hard.
