I have a xeon w3520 on ga-x58a-ud5. I desperately need 24GB ram (I do scientific computation) but getting non-ecc ram that size is way too expensive for me. On the other hand, I can get 24GB ecc for about $700 (PC3 10666), which I can live with.

But I would still love to overclock my w3520.

So my question is: has anyone successfully overclocked with ecc ram?

Does the X58 do ECC ram at all?

Yes, it does with Xeons.
