"It works" as in it boots, or "it works" as in it checks and reports single-bit errors and reports double-bit errors?
What OS? If Linux, are you using rasdaemon? Does it confirm that the appropriate EDAC drivers are loaded and working?
Or is that data only available in the BMC's event log?

For Linux support you need a very recent kernel - I forget how recent, but some reporting on it: https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-EDAC-Ryzen-7000-Series https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-EDAC-Ryzen-7000-Series
