> Ryzen desktop with ECC, and it registers about one bit-flip per week.

yeah, you have bad ram. Or you overclocked it.

I have a Ryzen server with 32GB ECC RAM running 24/7 for a year. 0 bit flips. Not a single one.

I did overclock it. It's a 3200 MHz module running at 3600; pretty typical for a gaming machine.

Of course, overclocked or not, I don't get memory errors. Just the occasional EDAC event.
