why slower? b/c there is an extra bit per byte - or more like no one produces 'overclocked' memory with ECC as there is no demand?

Seriously why you'd build a home rig, have a party (home) and make it dark instead of rainbow alike: zero street cred, and no invitations to LAN parties.
- magicalhippo 4y ago> why slower? From what I can find[1][2], it seems ECC is not faster for memory with same frequency and timings. Interestingly both sources find ECC being consistently a tad faster in some benchmarks. So presumably it'll be what you suggest, they don't come in overclocked variants. Of course, overclocking means lower margins hence greater chance for sporadic errors.
