I am beginning to assemble hardware for a new Ryzen build, and am hoping ECC ram will be supported. I want to build a single PC that I can utilize as my main PC for both gaming, general use and use as my workstation for AutoCAD and Solidworks projects, as well as Plex Media Server and photo storage. I toyed with the idea of a separate NAS, but don't want to go that route right now. (Yes, I know it would be better) I plan to use SnapRAID+Drivepool for my media through NTFS & Windows 10, or may eventually work through a Linux VM. ECC is only important for me due to the error checking/correcting for the media storage. My CAD use is not critical enough to warrant ECC.
My question is - Do we anticipate the lower clocked ECC 2133 CL15 or 2400 CL17 DDR4 will cause noticeable bottlenecks vs. the higher clocked 4000mhz+ sticks? I read through some testing/benchmarks and there seems to be conflicting information. Can I overvolt/overclock ECC ram if I throw on some heat spreaders/heat sinks?
As Ryzen hasn't been released yet, everything is up in the air until we get reviews. The leaks suggest that only 2400mhz ram will be officially supported, with mobo manufacturers potentially allowing faster clocks.
