Ryzen may support ECC memory at launch

Not sure how true this is but from the crosshair 6 hero marketing flyer says 3200+ oc support. Redgamingtech got that from somewhere.
 
That's probably true. But ECC memory runs slower.


Ow i wasnt saying really anything about ecc, more that ppl shouldnt take those speeds as the max if you know what i mean. Could well be this wasnt required but i dunno, im struggling like hell trying to figure out what ram i need to buy, an the more info we have the better for making a good purchase /shrug

Quite funny this has come about, I was thinking that the only thing missing is a server use. Guess that could be solved then
 
It would make sense financially. If all the cores are the same just packaged together, having the same memory controller for all of them even the 16 core and 32 core server CPUs would probably end up being cheaper overall

Remember that this is "OC support". Technically speaking Intel does not even guarantee that their Kaby lake CPUs can run with memory at over 2400MHz.

These memory support specs are often very little to go on, as things can be improved substantially with updated motherboard BIOS files ETC. You'd be surprised how bad some early motherboards can be at running fast memory until we receive updated BIOS files.

Well i wouldnt be that shocked, when fx came out i got a ud7 if you can remember them things from gigabyte, never mind memory, it couldnt even run the fx chip it was designed for, plugged it in and the vrms exploded :P

But as the new information was apparently from the hero flyer it may give us a better understanding of the hero board atleast.

With the way Gigabyte boards are being so aggressive with voltages these days I would not touch one with a barge pole.
 
Ye i dont think i would buy one again, but i mean look at the gigabyte board vs the asus ones for ryzen when it comes to the vrms on them.
