cheap 478 mobo with ecc (unbuffered) support?

[morkus64]

basically as the title says. I need a very cheap socket 478 mobo that supports unbuffered ECC memory. I imagine a lot of them do, but i can't find anything explicit.

Thanks guys

875P boards are great. Unfortunately, they are not cheap IIRC.

Found a Intel 875P board.

so will most boards that say require unbuffered ram take unbuffered ECC? I don't want to buy a board just to find out i can't use this ram

Find a suitable mb, and then check it out at www.crucial.com for the specific types of memory it will accept. According to Crucial's website the Intel D875PBZLK mb will take both unbuffered ECC and non-Ecc.

In my experience, I have never had a problem with Crucial's recommendations.

Do you want to actually USE the ECC function, or do you just want to find a board that can use up a bunch of ECC memory that you have?
