Does it support ECC memory?
- binarycrusader 9y agoNo, that remains a Xeon feature.
- mrmondo 9y agoAnd on low end i3 chips
- acqq 9y agoYes, an example from 2017: https://ark.intel.com/products/97455/Intel-Core-i3-7100-Processor-3M-Cache-3_90-GHz https://ark.intel.com/products/97455/Intel-Core-i3-7100-Proc... The latest i5 or i7 with ECC were introduced in 2014. Now, does anybody know why i3 but not i5 or i7?
- spoonspoon 9y agoProbably because there are no i3 equivalents in the Xeon line (no dual core Xeons) and Intel wants a low-end ECC supporting CPU. Keep in mind that for at least the last couple generations, even though Celerons, Pentiums, and i3s support ECC you must use a server chipset like the C23x or C22x to actually get ECC on those CPUs.
- undersuit 9y agoIntel segments ECC support by Chipset and only the Workstation chipsets get ECC support. I recall reading somewhere that Intel was also ceasing the support of i3s and server chipset support and the Intel Ark page supports this: https://ark.intel.com/products/126688/Intel-Core-i3-8100-Processor-6M-Cache-3_60-GHz https://ark.intel.com/products/126688/Intel-Core-i3-8100-Pro...
- snaky 9y agoNo FPGA onboard either.
