I did the consumer 3700X. The Asrock micro ATX x570 board worked w/o problems. Well, except for the fact I bought "registered memory" instead of ECC....wooops. But once corrected I haven't had any problems. Had to throw in a GeForce 1030 card for monitor support but has been running Ubuntu for admitted basic fileserver needs w/o a hitch.
I assume the more common consumer processors have been tested more than the thread ripper ones, being they are more common and out longer.
- louwrentius 7y agoYou have Registered ECC and Unregistered ECC memory. Both are ECC. As far as I know. Registered ECC memory is for larger amounts, mostly used in servers or extreme workstations.
- loeg 7y agoRegistered (or not) is somewhat orthogonal to ECC (or not): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Registered_memory https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Registered_memory In reality, registered non-ECC is uncommon because the situations that create the need for RDIMMs typically coincide with the need for ECC.
- loeg 7y agoAMD explicitly does not support registered DIMMS in TR and Ryzen memory controllers for SKU stratification purposes. For TR and Ryzen you have to buy unregistered DIMMs, aka UDIMMs. This is documented on the data sheets for the CPUs as well as the motherboards.
