Bulldozer Desktop and ECC RAM

[nexusN]

Hi all,

After a long wait for my ASUS P8B WS, I am now thinking of buying a Bulldozer instead, but I still want to keep using ECC rams.

Reading from ASUS website, the new AM3+ boards supports ECC RAM, but does Bulldozer Desktop CPUSs themselves also supports ECC RAM?

Thank you for your attention.

that's what Opterons are for

No, Opterons are for registered ECC RAM, so you have a ton of it.
Ultimately, you'll have to wait and see, but there's no reason they shouldn't support ECC.

I expect support for ECC on Bulldozer desktop as the mother board themselves do.
So now the support is not confirmed for Bulldozer desktop yet?
