Do we know for sure ryzen does not have ecc support?
- pmoriarty 10y agoECC support is a motherboard feature, not a CPU feature, isn't it?
- SXX 10y agoActually it's depend on both motherboard and CPU.
- aidenn0 10y agoIt requires that the memory controller support ECC and that there are extra traces from the memory controller to the RAM. This used to mean it was solely a motherboard feature, but starting about a decade ago, the memory controller was moved onto the CPU, so now it requires both CPU and motherboard support.
- ultra2d 10y agoIt does. Asrock support claims their AM4 motherboards support it.
- aidenn0 10y agoWe do not yet know. Gigabyte specifically says ECC memory is compatible, but runs without ECC on their boards. Asrock only says that ECC ram is compatible.
- ultra2d 10y agoI asked Asrock support earlier this week: MSI and Gigabyte explicitly mention "(operate in non-ECC mode)". Is that also true for Asrock AM4 motherboards? Or do they fully support ECC? Reply: From: ASRock Support <snip> Date: Mon, Feb 27, 2017 at 10:17 AM Hello, ASRock AM4 motherboards fully support ECC function. Still, someone will have to test to be sure.
