That's good to know. It seems the issue is actually motherboard support. Newegg shows a single intel motherboard with ECC and no AMD ones. I suppose the low-end server hardware (e.g., HP Microservers) just tend to be AMD so it's easiest to get a cheap AMD server with ECC than an Intel one. I had assumed it was an intel issue but apparently not.
It would be nice if the intel ultrabook standard started including ECC as well. One can dream...
- Freaky 13y agoOn LGA1150 you need a C22x chipset for ECC support: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/chipsets/server-chipsets/server-chipset-c222-c224-c226.html http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/chipsets/server-chips... Prices for these start about 3x higher than other boards, their choice is extremely limited, and availability even more so :/
