ECC Memory (Error-Correcting Code)

ECC memory appends additional check bits (typically 8 bits per 64-bit word) enabling single-bit error correction and double-bit error detection (SECDED) in real time without performance penalty. It prevents data corruption in scientific computing, financial modelling, server workloads, and professional content creation. Supported on Intel Xeon W, Intel Core X-Series, AMD Ryzen Threadripper / Threadripper Pro, AMD EPYC, and certain AMD Ryzen 5000/7000 desktop platforms when paired with ECC UDIMM/RDIMM modules and a supporting motherboard.
