ECC RAM on AMD Ryzen 7000 Desktop CPUs
I have a genuine question - in practice on a workstation&#x2F;developer computer, what sort of protection does ECC ram give me?<p>I&#x27;ve got two daily driver machines - a 3970x threadripper with 96GB ram, and an M1 Macbook Pro - neither of which have ECC ram.<p>I&#x27;ve been using them both for over 2 years, and not once in that period (that I&#x27;m aware of) have I found myself with a problem due to faulty RAM, but I do regularly find myself wishing both were faster.<p>What practical benefit would I get in exchange for the performance hit of ECC memory?
