Right, so maybe the fact that its a desktop chipset means that it behaves differently and doesn't raise MCEs on memory errors. We have a bunch of these processors and we haven't yet seen an MCE raised on a memory error. > Btw, is that the official memory controller name you'd like the edac > driver to be called - ie31200?

Another alternative might be ie312xx?
