AMD Ryzen APUs don't support ECC unless they're the OEM-only PRO variant.
(Edit: These are way more attractive for home server use because they consume a lot less power than the Ryzen CPUs when idle)
- cassianoleal 3y agoI was looking for this before I posted. If anyone is looking for one of these standalone, outside of a full build, I bought a Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G about a year or 2 ago from AliExpress. It's been running a homeserver 24x7 since then and I never had any issues with it. YMMV of course.
- adrian_b 3y agoAll mobile Ryzen 6000 and Ryzen 7000 APUs (Zen 3 or Zen 4) support ECC, unlike in the earlier generations, where ECC was restricted to PRO variants. Unfortunately, none of the small computers that use them supports ECC on the MB. It is expected that AMD will launch a desktop Zen 4 APU in the near future. If that happens, it remains to be seen whether ECC will remain enabled in it, like in the current laptop packages, but there seems to be no reason to disable it.
- adrian_b 3y agoI can no longer edit the previous message, but I must mention that, as pointed by another poster, some time during the last couple of months AMD has changed the specifications of all their mobile Ryzen CPUs. While during at least one year and a half all the laptop CPU specifications for Ryzen 6000 and Ryzen 7000 specifications have included a clear statement that ECC is supported, in the very recent past this statement has been removed from all AMD mobile CPU (non-PRO) specifications, for unknown reasons.
