Considering previous AMD chips could use ECC I hope it's true this time as well. AMD's CEO Dr. Lisa Su has an AMA later today, we should probably ask her: https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5vl431/its_happening_amd_cpu_division_will_host_an_ama/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5vl431/its_happening_a...
Might as well ask her about the possibility of coreboot if we are at it.
- Qantourisc 10y agoDoes anyone has a reddit account ? And know how AMA's work ? I'd love to get some input here. Or at least show we care. Edit: Account made, instructions received. If all goes well I should be asking later today.
- NotSammyHagar 10y agogo to reddit. create an account. you don't need an email. then in that 'discussion' you ask your question. that is how amas work.
- eatbitseveryday 10y agoMaking one takes 5 seconds and AMA = Ask Me Anything. You reply to the top post with your question and wait for a response.
- chris11 10y agoI'd also add it to the calendar here: https://www.cognitoforms.com/IAMA/IAMACalendarRequest https://www.cognitoforms.com/IAMA/IAMACalendarRequest. And mention the time in a few other subreddits like r/AMD, /r/buildapc, and r/technology. But it looks like the CEO has already scheduled an AMA for today: https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5vl431/its_happening_amd_cpu_division_will_host_an_ama/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5vl431/its_happening_a...
- 69mlgsniperdad 10y agoLooks like you figured it out. If not, I did actually see someone about a month ago mention in a comment here, that they may or may not be in possession of a Reddit account. I'll take a look and see if I can find the original comment. Maybe someone else has seen.
- nibb0r 10y agoAccording to AMD: "ECC is not disabled. It works, but not validated for our consumer client platform." https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5x4hxu/we_are_amd_creators_of_athlon_radeon_and_other/def6vs2/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5x4hxu/we_are_amd_crea...
- tutanchamun 10y agoWhat means validated in this case? It's not certified by AMD to work, so depending on the memory and motherboard combination it could work, or if you are unlucky it doesn't work? btw: someone asked about coreboot: https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5x4hxu/we_are_amd_creators_of_athlon_radeon_and_other/def5h1b/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5x4hxu/we_are_amd_crea...
- morsch 10y agoValidated means run it through server/workstation grade testing. For the first Ryzen processors, focused on the prosumer / gaming market, this feature is enabled and working but not validated by AMD. You should not have issues creating a whitebox homelab or NAS with ECC memory enabled. https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5x4hxu/we_are_amd_creators_of_athlon_radeon_and_other/def7z72/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5x4hxu/we_are_amd_crea...
- tutanchamun 10y agoThank you.
- seanp2k2 10y agoThanks. Still want to see someone actually get ECC to show up as enabled on something like the Asus Crosshair Hero board, which is what I've pre-ordered. I just grabbed a 16GBx2 kit of G.Skill 3200 but it would be great to get ECC for this quantity.
