Do you remember MSB Link DAC III? It had upsampling option. In order to save money, I purchased the chip and DIYed myself. I didn't like the result at all. I will stay with bit perfect.Yes, I did that 25 years ago. Yet the Apollo 11 mission, launched on July 16, 1969, marked the first time humans landed on the Moon.
What you could do in the past, doesn't mean you can do it again today.

The PGGB-RT is a different (more sophisticated) implementation than a legacy upgrade chip. Rest assured the legacy chip did not increase bit length to 107 bits like PGGB-RT. The level of processing that PGGB-RT performs simply was not possible back then. It's more akin to HQ Player, albeit a stripped down version.
Bit perfect is a completely different issue from upscaling/filtering. All DAC's (with the exception of NOS) provide some level of oversampling/and filtering. PGGB-RT just provides additional filtering. The results are audible, and has always provided an overall improvement in quality.

Recently I purchased a couple of products made by another country. I was shocked by the high tech ingredients and quality. I feel hopeless.
Enjoy your 107bit.
