I got really burned by AMD GPUs, had a 5700 XT for myself and rx 580 and 570 for my kids. None of them reset properly, had to build special kernel, and even sometimes then they just froze the host. Sold them all, got NVidia cards, never had

The latest BIOS for ASUS Prime X370 Pro has ECC explicitly as a configuration option. Seems to work in Linux. I am using 2x8R ECC 2666Mhz RAM from Kingston.
