Have a look at the supported hardware page: http://www.dragonflybsd.org/docs/supportedhardware/
For ECC support, you'll probably need to use a server board and add discrete sound and graphics cards. These two Supermicro boards are the only ones with ECC support + sound onboard I know of: http://www.supermicro.nl/products/motherboard/Xeon/C600/X9SRA.cfm http://www.supermicro.nl/products/motherboard/Xeon/C600/X9DAi.cfm There is also one Asus workstation board which *may* support ECC. -- Francois Tigeot
