Don't understand any of the hype on this. It's the same ryzen processors rebranded
They have things like official ECC support, unlike Ryzen. Which is pretty important.
"Unlike Ryzen"

"ECC support: Yes"
Sure seems officially supported. What else do these epycs have that the ryzens supposedly don't? Every spec I've seen so far is literally identical to ryzens, with nothing but the name changed.
I'm in the same thought process as you. I was sure ryzen had ECC support all the way back with gen 1 which was an awesome feature compared to the way Intel is doing it. I also remember it was up to the motherboard vendor to build in support ?
