I’m looking for the best (and most affordable…) motherboard + ECC ram combo that handles virtualisation reliably to pair with 3rd gen Ryzen in a home server. I will be very grateful for all motherboard suggestions (as well as which sticks work well with it). Thanks a lot!
I don’t know where you are or what prices look like for you. I’ve seen trouble-free stability with B550 and X570 chipsets using Unbuffered ECC DDR4-3200 without consulting the specific device’s compatibility list on the motherboard’s web site.
Make sure your Ryzen is non-G or Pro G edition to use the ECC lines. If you have to stick a video card in to boot, you can also connect via SSH, unload the kernel module and pass the GPU device to vfio to passthrough to your VM’s.
K3n.
