Fair enough, I just want to keep my Hardware running, do i have any options(besides getting new hardware).

I am willing to begin from scratch, any proper resources you can point me to? l

the price of a new vulkan capable graphics card is $300-400

Do you think I would have any motivation to embark on such a ( admittedly Useless)project if i had that kind of money lying around to spend on a GPU.

that looks like something opposite to what i want Vulkan -> OpenGl, instead of something like OpenGl -> Vulkan
