Intel cut ECC support for consumer i3 and Pentium Gold since the 10th gen. They want me buying the Xeon W-1250, but I need a lower power CPU and the fun fact: The W-12xx are hard to get. So how can I send my money to Intel if they don't want it?

Linus Torvalds "Charming", ROFL. I'm a Linux nerd and I think Linus Torvalds can be a bit blunt sometimes to put it lightly. Linus Torvalds went with the Monolithic kernel for Linux to prove a point. That's how "Charming" he is.

I got ECC RAM in my work computer and dual core xeon. I love my work computer! I believe my work machine is RDIMM

So give it about 6 months before AMD's ECC can out perform non-ECC got it

i can almost hear the word glasswire when he says "sponsor"

Some day soon (I hope) Linus, you'll come over from the dark side and focus more on the OS that your namesake has built for you :-D

I've had memory crashes that could've been avoided with ECC lol

hey linus ecc is actualy cheaper and a lot in ddr3 on aliexpress if you can bare the 1month delivery of course, and memory crashes come on... a ddr4 memory crash for any of us? a pc crash caused by ddr4 memory is equaly likely than a fridge falling from the sky at your car at 1.december 2035, ecc is great for editors of big projects or for servers but for gamers? nah dont bather buying it it wont make a difference

My next system is gonna be any decently priced CPU+Mobo that supports ECC. No matter the cost... well, hopefully at not too much extra cost.

If I want to overclock my memory I just cut on XMP and call it a day.

3:06. Its me 😮...

thanks man

Love the selfie reflection in the 2080 super :D

09:00 but do they work on Linux?

This is why I don’t watch Linus much anymore, it feels like he just bashes on Intel in most of his videos. Now I understand AMD makes good products but, it get annoying hearing Intel succ AMD goog every vid

5:37 That reflection is good

nvidia fucked with everybody.hail to amd!

1:48 "Parody data" in CC, lol

"Parody data", what? Who does these subtitles, and how do you fix them?

The furry furtive oven peroperatively number because wasp incidentally crash after a absorbing hub. old, momentous napkin

Beard, beenie and a hoodie, are you a drug addict, linus?

Don't buy a car that has a drive computer without ecc.

If you're hosting a game like ark even in a non-dedicated session this can reduce crashes.

I'm running my R5 3600 with 64GB of micron single rank ecc ram. One more advantage to the stability is, that it runs 3200Mt/s at 1.2V and stays perfectly cool without the need for heat spreaders. The standard voltage also has the advantage, that it runs the 3200Mt/s stock without having to use D.O.C.P. . And it might be more gentle to the cpu's memory controller.

Wait Wait Wait hol' up. is that a crunchyroll hat?

128gb of ram, pffff i am working on a server right now, i want to adress, quite cheap one still, that has also 128gb of ram, but still 20 slots empty, and it could also take another cpu too...

ECC is not worth the price. Especially in Workstations. I'm managing 20 CAD stations in my workplace I switched out from ECC to regular PC memory and none of my users notice a difference in performance or crashes. And my tracking proves this out over the past 8 years. Save the money and put it to something else (another stick of ram maybe?) or get a thumbs up from your boss for saving a few hundred bucks on the new workstations you purchased under budget.

Linus Torvalds video in Linus Tech Tips channel lmao

8:36 "But if you want the utmost instability..." haha!

Thanks, Linus! And Linus Torvald! I didn't even know about ECC b4!

1:47 "parody data" ?!? Eeee... What? :) I think that might be "parity data". "Parody" is current overall supply situation...

Anyone who has edited IPB h264 4k or any other highly compressed codec in premiere knows the quality of life that ECC brings.

mb

I was watching this whole video thinking "Who cares?"

of fucking course it was pannenkoek who discovered it...

Why ECC ram have better performance and faster than the one without ECC?

The fact that there is no distinction between executable code and data means that your program could jump at the wrong address and crash the system by jumping just about anywhere.

Inverted bits are the worst. Ask Bruce Jenner.

#FUNVIDIA !!!

50 bucks more? nooooooooooooooooope waste of money.

Linus Torvalds is one of my tech heroes.

Linus is right that Linus was right.

me running tREFI at 65535 and tRFC at 220 ecc who?

On average pc this kind of errors happen once a three years man.

Since i use Linux this ecc memory compatibility will be useful for compiling code without ending up with a failed binary executable

will it really... i mean it probably would like twice in your life but i think you've got some bigger problems if all your code is resulting in a failed executable lol

Well everyone is into building their own server now adays, its only logical to make ecc available to every device.

I run a minecraft server off my computer. Wishing for better single thread cpu, Or Minecraft becoming multi thread. I allocate about 10 of my 16 gb of ram(not a big server). If my ram is not working properly, I find out really quickly.

The chemical step-son hemodynamically trace because bankbook technologically talk onto a acid children. few fierce, literate thomas

Do memory errors ever happen if the stick is not defective?

I thought Linus was talking about himself.

“Utmost instability, thanks AMD” wow.... slip of the tongue there? Must have been lost in the post...

Intels on a roll...down the hill.

I wanted to upgrade from a i-5 quad to an i-7 but the new LGA 1151 slot isn't compatible with the old one. so the new CPU won't work on the old motherboard xd. I ended up giving my pc to my uncle cause his was dying and built myself a solid rig with a Ryzen 7 2700X and a RX 5500 XT graphics card along with 16gb of ram. Man 8GB cards have gotten cheap, I got the card for 200 bucks at best buy. It ain't the best card but it performed pretty decently. never buying intel again lol.

wtf is he talking about

Hey Linus, can you sell me a 3090? worth a shot

why is no one talking about the fact that they decreased the price tag of the cpu pillow form 59 to 20 usd? they heard us 5:53

The hulking cherries concordingly gaze because shadow muhly vanish round a dreary shell. symptomatic, nervous low

Clickbait titles and content have driven me away from your channel. You used to be a serious review channel. Now you're trying to be the PewDiePie of tech. Bye.

I’ve always wondered why hardcore gamers and PC enthusiasts that spend literally all day in front of their computer screens think ECC is stupid and unnecessary but not RGB. I recently started looking to build a new rig and all motherboards/cases/etc. seem to come with RGB in mind because it is something that customers want so badly. Would we all have affordable and easy access to ECC if these hardcores had wanted it instead of RGB? Do people really just spend all day looking at the side of their computers?

ECC ram is slower

Linus Sebastian (Linus Tech Tips) thanking Linus Torvalds (Linux creator) for giving us the true on NVidia and ECC.

Why are you against Nvidia, wasn't this supposed to be LNvidias Tech Tips

Thank you Linus for "raising the question" and not "begging the question".

...if you want the stability of a server: buy a server.

3:01 how Linus sees us

If you overclock your memory and run the memory test for all 4 cycles (i think its about 8-13 hours) i think you are pretty safe it wont randomly flip bits on you.

WOW new intro :O

"It's official! AMD will be sponsoring LinusTechTips videos! Deal got done today!!" - tweet from 2013, everything makes sense now...

@Autumn Red Yeah, true

@Razvan Cosmaciuc yeah, maybe amd has bought them back now, it's weird that every video now is about how bad nvidia is and how amd is going to save us

But they we're bought by Nvidia on April 1st 2016 (or 2017)

cool

The beauty of having worked for years in a datacenter, I have TONS of ECC DDR4 laying around...

2:40 who is pannenkeok12? I've heard of pannenkoek2012, but not pannenkoek12.

IDK if the guy that wrote "parody data" instead of "parity data" in the subtitles at 1:48 should be awarded or fired

i love how linus performed this video. so inspiring so motivated and full of energy. He shot this video at 150% clockspeed !

So if you want the utmost instability.... Wait what? Wasn't it about stability?!? I'm kidding - but it sounded like you said instability - poor choice of words there.

lol Ionizing particle from space collides with Dota_teabags N64. There must be a god. lol but fk amd I'm not running Secure processor. :)

3:07 ¿Lonrot?

AMD. hmm, might need to get me some more of that.

That nimix ram is cheapo tier and sometimes has problems especially with ASRock rack but not Kingston

Linus × 2 ≠ Linus²

I'm using ECC for more than a year... and totally worth the inversion. Pro tip #1: If you want to check if the ram is in ECC mode on Windows PC, open CMD and type wmic memphysical get memoryerrorcorrection That command will give you a number. In my case the number is 6, non ECC memory usually you should see 3. Value Meaning 0 (0x0) Reserved 1 (0x1) Other 2 (0x2) Unknown 3 (0x3) None 4 (0x4) Parity 5 (0x5) Single-bit ECC 6 (0x6) Multi-bit ECC 7 (0x7) CRC Pro tip #2: Invest on a Stable PSU, i'm using a Corsair AX series, it's expensive but reliable.

6508 for ram

thanks Linus

freaking intel...

Can you do a video that provides an objective comparison of stability when using ECC vs. Non-ECC ram? Hours of gaming between crashes?

the linus tag team could save us all

linus u don't even game.. it's always doom or cs... what do you even know about games anymore? you should be subducted and examined without any preperation on a live stream >=]

Hi, from an AMD CPU user that LOVE to use ECC RAM - DDR, DDR2, DDR3...yeah well, i did go for a brand new Ryzen build in 2019 ;-) Learned the "trick" with a Socket 939 ASUS A8N-SLI (still alive with an Opteron 180)

The only motherboard I found that both had ECC implementation and AM4 socket for Ryzen 50xx processing units it the Asus Pro WS X570-ACE.

is this real Linus, or deepfaked?

0:30 I spilled tee all over my keybord, thanks linus, you own me one :P jk

One time when i was still a noob, this z420 workstation from HP cost me alot of troubles it needed ecc as well. Even the computer store people from (Informatique) didnt know.

Does average consumers really need ECC memory? The answer is no. This whole video in senseless and absurd. Nobody really have their PC running 24/7 with high calculation loads. And system crashes mostly caused by software errors, probably by 99,9%. Regular memory sticks are reliable enough, probably you will never have any problems with it.

Thing is I have been using non ECC in my PC's for many years, all the desktop PC's in every facility I have ever worked use non ECC memory, and in all that time has there never been an issue caused by memory errors. I work in PC support and I have never once seen a ticket were the issue was down to memory errors, to put that in perspective I work in a local authority and we support 15,000 users.

SUOMALAINEN KOMMENTTI JOTA ETSIT

"the upmost in stability" haha

I paid close attention to what you said. I still have no clue what any of it means. I'm going back to my two soup cans, tied together with some twine. And my 8-tracks... :-)

This talk of hamming code and bit flips reminds me of college, and I don't like it. Intel was right to block this from us.
