Yes but you’ll need special hardware. Enterprise systems use registered “RDIMM” modules that won’t work in consumer systems. Even if your system supports ECC that is just UDIMM aka consumer grade with error correction.
This all being said I would bet you could find some cheap Epic or Xeon chips + an appropriate board if/when they crash comes.
Okay so I'd just need an enterprise board.
Yah. And a CPU to match. Either Epic or Xeon.
Engineering and quality samples float around sometimes which makes them more reasonable prices too. They have minor defects sometimes but I've never had an issue yet that matter
