Title: ga-ma790fxt-ud5p and ecc memory
Post by: brizou on April 29, 2012, 04:34:08 pm

Hello,
I would like to change my current memory configuration to ecc ram stick
I have seen those http://www.magicpc.fr/memoires_serveurs/Kingston_KVR1333D3E9SK3/12G/p-20396/

Do you think it would work, i've seen people have successfully used Crucial ecc stick, but what about Kingston ?

p.s : I have a X2 240e on the board

Hi there,

according to the AMD website this CPU only supports unregistered DIMMS so I don't think it will work.  :'(

Type of Memory Supported   X2 - Support for unregistered DIMMs up to PC2-8500 (DDR2-1066MHz) -AND- PC3-8500 (DDR3-1066MHz)

so if I find ecc unregisterred PC3-8500 it should be good,  yes ?

edit : the sticks in my link are not registered, so it should be good

I've seen these ones in PC8500
