I tried building an old rig (maybe ~7 years ago or so) using ECC RAM (since I was running two Xeons). It was such a pain in the butt to get it to boot and find sticks that were compatible with each other, don't really want to go down that path again.
- danparsonson 2y agoI built my most recent desktop using ECC and it was a breeze, so maybe you were just unlucky?
- bjoli 2y agoI just chugged 128gb of ddr4 LRDIMMs into my old xeon server. It worked flawlessly.
- Fnoord 2y agoFor me it was a one shot with a Xeon, no issues whatsoever. Any decent price comparison is able to filter on ECC memory.
- _factor 2y agoThe cheap sticks work if you don’t mind buying a bunch and sending back the ones that don’t work together in your config. Binning is likely the problem.
