> AMD supports [ECC RAM] on all chips

There was a strange happening with AMD laptop CPUs (“APUs”): the non-soldered DDR5 variants of the 7x40’s were advertised to support ECC RAM on AMD’s website up until a couple months before any actual laptops were sold, then that was silently changed and ECC is only on the PRO models now. I still don’t know if this is a straightforward manufacturing or chipset issue of some kind or a sign of market segmentation to come.

(I’m quite salty I couldn’t get my Framework 13 with ECC RAM because of this.)
