I've probably read too much sci-fi, but high-density computronium left behind by a fallen civilization might make it worthwhile?

  I hope it's ARM or RISC-V, and not x86-based computronium.

  What sci-fi would you recommend if I want to read more about this computronium?

    Some of the later books in the Culture series (most directly The Hydrogen Sonata) deal with civilizations trying to get a leg up on the galactic tech ladder by scavenging the leavings of older civilizations that have "sublimed" and left the physical realm.

    A Deepness in the Sky and the related books.

    Beside the already mentioned Culture series and Deepness in the Sky, I can recommend the Revelation Space saga.
