[solved] What motherboard supports/will run 12800e ( ECC ) so-dimm ddr3 ?


I am trying to find a system board that supports ECC SO-DIMM. Just got two 8GB sticks ( standard, unbuffered, not registered, CL11 ) hoping that a DELL laptop (i5-2520M, C200/6-series chipset) will at least detect it, even if ECC is not supported on i5/i7s CPUs. Since many DDR3 ECC full size DIMMs work on standard i5/i7 motherboards, without the ECC "feature" enabled, I was hoping the same will apply to notebook(s).
Does anybody have seen/or knows about any desktop/server board that will accept DDR3 ECC SO-DIMMs (standard, 204 pin) ? - I spent quite some time doing the "homework" without any positive result...

Thanks a lot!

Mike

If it is old (and I suspect it is) try industrial pcs as they accomodate the trailing edge stuff better.

Thanks for your reply.. I spent some more time on the "homework".
Industrial PCs is a good guess...
I would not agree with trailing edge: there is chipsets such as Q87 or C226 that support ECC, which with some ECC enabled CPUs will support the ECC SODIMM: i5-4570TE, i3-4330TE, G3420, G3420TE.

and

ASUS ROG G750 JW Quad

Thanks again!

Mike
