> Unbuffered ECC and the cost of using a workstation class chipset really pushes this into luxury territory. Plus, I'm never too sure what Intel's future plans are for successor processors and chipsets, which is why I settled on W680.
Some cheap AMD motherboards support ECC. But the future is unknown. Ryzen 8000 CPUs don't.
- TheAmazingRace 2y agoAMD has a sort of unofficial stance on ECC. The support isn't explicitly stated for desktop parts, although unofficially it typically works. I like having 100% assurances and guarantees that it will work, making the W680 based platform I'm on a no-brainer for this application.
- pseudalopex 2y agoAMD's product pages say yes with motherboard support or no.[1] [1] https://www.amd.com/en/product/12741 https://www.amd.com/en/product/12741
- TheAmazingRace 2y agoHmm I actually didn't see this before. I stand corrected.
