RYZEN 9 5950X PAIRED WITH A GIGABYTE X570 AORUS MASTER REV 1.2

SORRY FOR BEING A PAIN IN THE BUTT AGAIN WITH MY QUESTIONS. I'm NOT SURE AS TO WHAT FORM I NEEDED TO PUT THIS POST IN SO I'M PUTTING IT IN THE GENERAL AREA. I have searched and have not found a definitive answer to this question. Can anyone tell me what ecc unbuffered memory I can/should use with the above-mentioned processor and motherboard I have in the subject line? YES I looked in the gigabyte support sight and it did give a very long list but, it also had in there about there being more ram that could be use but it did not give them. So with that does anyone have any experience with the combination to go along with the ECC unbuffered modules. The Gigabyte tech told me that it must be unbuffered, only 3200HRZ max. I'm looking to get a total of 128GB of ram @ 32GB in each module. they both can except or allow for ECC. This will be the last item/part for my build that I need. Thanks again in advance for your responses, have a great day and be safe!!

Sincerely eagle12426

Your Motherboard's QVL List for the 5000 series RAM (Vermeer) should indicate if it supports ECC or not: https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/X570-AORUS-MASTER-rev-11-12/support#support-doc

According to the above QVL List for your Motherboard for the Vermeer Processor only 3 RAM Part Numbers have been verified to work in ECC mode.

That doesn't mean that others not listed will also work in ECC Mode it just hasn't been tested by Gigabyte yet.

EDIT: I suggest you look for another motherboard that support more ECC Ram.

This Asus Pro WS X570-ACE (Workstation Motherboard) supports ECC RAM: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards-Components/Motherboards/Workstation/Pro-WS-X570-ACE/HelpDesk_QVL/

This is Asus QVL List for ECC Memory for the above motherboard:

ASRock has several WorkStation Motherboards that support ECC RAM Memory: https://www.asrockrack.com/support/supportlist.asp?cat=RAM
