I'm looking for hardware for my new NAS. Is there any Intel CPUs which support Quick Sync and ECC memory at same time? And is there any MB which semi officially supports ECC? I usually use AMD CPUs for servers, but any AMD CPU with build-in video does not support ECC.

And just to prevent ECC holy wars - I need ECC. :-) And adding GPU to AMD system is an option but I'm trying to avoid it.

It is an option. But used from Ali? I'm not sure that I would trust them with my data.

Thank you. Intel now offer ECC on top processors like i7 and i9. It is a news development. Now biggest problem is to find motherboard supporting ECC.
