The CUV4X does not. The P3V4X does.

No offense, but this Tom's Hardware article says that the CUV4X *does*
support up to 1.5 GB of ECC SDRAM. The P3V4X also supports ECC.

No offense taken, but when the CUV4X first came out, the asus.com web site
also said that the CUV4X supported ECC memory. Now, asus.com does not
mention ECC memory. The version of the bios I have for the CUV4X, 1006, does
not have a setting for ECC memory.

The P3V4X does support ECC ram with bios version 1005. In the
Advanced Menu under Chip Configuration, find Data Integrity Mode, just after
Memory Hole at 15M-16M. There you can set ECC memory.

Okay, so I went out and bought one. It *does* "CHECK" ECC RAM upon
startup and there is a toggle for that in the CMOS setup. It *does
not* have the switch later on in the Chip Configuration.

I have had ZERO response from Asus after numerous emails. Those
people can't answer a simple question and don't even give you the
courtesy of an auto-response.

Now for another question; Will the P3V4X or CUV4X play at 1 GHz ?

Where is the toggle in the CMOS to "CHECK" ECC RAM?

Thanks

According to Jim <satu...@hotmail.com>:

Hmm, the toggle in BIOS Setup in Advanced section is for level 2
cache ... at least that's what I can found and to my knowledge it
has nothing to do with SDRAM on DIMM slots.

CUV4X Motherboard will take the 1 Ghz P3 From what I have heard. The
highest I have seen personally is 933Mhz, but I am sure if you do some
snoopying on the net you will find out how to do it.

Yes, the ASUS P3V4X supports until 4GB of ECC memory. The specifications about ASUS P3V4X aren't completed correct because it supports memory modules of 1GB so that you can upgrade it until 4GB not 2GB as described here. The operative system can manage 3GB because it needs to use some addresses for the hardware that's because I've been using 3 memory ECC modules of 1GB, total 3GB. The system works perfectly with Windows 7 Professional 32 bit and the latest BIOS upgrade 1006.004.
