If it has ECC memory, it's going to be branded as a workstation or server or industrial device, not marketed as a consumer device. Among consumer products, some AMD desktop CPUs and motherboards support ECC memory, and that's about it.

For desktops, ASRock motherboards seem to be the common choice for people wanting ECC memory. It's specifically mentioned on the ASRock motherboard pages under "Specifications". Some random examples: • https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B650%20Pro%20RS/index.asp#Specification https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B650%20Pro%20RS/index.asp#Spec... • https://pg.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B650%20PG%20Lightning%20WiFi/index.asp#Specification https://pg.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B650%20PG%20Lightning%20WiFi/in... • https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X670E%20Taichi/index.asp#Specification https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X670E%20Taichi/index.asp#Speci... These all have: Supports DDR5 ECC/non-ECC, un-buffered memory up to 7200+(OC)

  I think it's worth investigating the level of "support" these boards offer for ECC. The ASRock Taichi for example does not have any ECC DIMMs in its "qualified" list.

    Interesting. Might be good for someone (not me!) to investigate then write in-depth info about. :) As a data point, I'm using a previous generation ASRock AM4 motherboard with ECC and that definitely works. I'm undervolting my cpu and ram, and very occasionally (every 6 months or so?) one of those seems to be generating a correctable ECC error that gets propagated to warning messages on my terminal. Haven't bothered investigating any further though. ;)
