Proposal 1: A NAS build is not exactly NAS-compliant

Athlon 200GE doesn’t support ECC, though literally all Ryzen CPUs do.

B450 supports ECC with some limitations, accordint to the example user manual:

  • AMD Ryzen series CPUs (Pinnacle Ridge) support DDR4 3466+(OC)/3200(OC)/2933/2667/2400/2133 ECC & nonECC, un-buffered memory*
  • AMD Ryzen series CPUs (Summit Ridge) support DDR4 3466+(OC)/3200(OC)/2933(OC)/2667/2400/2133 ECC & non-ECC, un-buffered memory*
  • AMD Ryzen series CPUs (Raven Ridge) support DDR4 3466+(OC)/3200(OC)/2933(OC)/2667/2400/2133 non-ECC, un-buffered memory*
  • For Ryzen Series CPUs (Raven Ridge), ECC is only supported with PRO CPUs.

To support ECC and avoid the use of a dedicated GPU at the same time, PRO 2200G/GE is proposed as the lowest-end eligible CPU for refreshed NAS build.

SSD cache is optional for RAM less than 32GB.

Cheap refurbished NICs can be actually kinda model many years ago. 40mm quiet cooling fan replacement needed.

Proposal 2: MSI RMA request

Exchange done.

Proposal 3: Ultimate casual video editing rig, unlimited budget

Wait for annual refresh of Threadripper. TRX40 should continue to receive support.

1200W PSU for dual-GPU. ASUS ROG PSU can be installed upside-down.
