Both Opteron and Xeon processors require registered memory. The kicker is registered memory has a small time penalty to it.
Personal experience: At work for the past 4 years we have been running a test lab of 25 computers running our product. Some systems have registered memory others do not. To be honest I have yet to see a difference in reliability between the two types of memory. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Whisper .

Can you get Xeon Motherboards that won't run on ECC memory? To be honest I've never even bothered to check, its not even something you think about when making the decisions on these sorts of boxes. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
