Which board was it?
But at that point I was using the Lenovo box. So I just sold all the crap on eBay for the next victim.
For my Ryzen 5000 series build (a while ago now) I went with an ASRock board for ECC support, and also ECC ram.
It's been mostly flawless, though as I'm undervolting the ram it does let me know about an ECC corrected error once every 6-9 months or so. ;)
And there's one thing you can NEVER trust and that is objectivity from gamers when looking at failure and reliability statistics. It's one huge cargo cult.
Notably my kids both have Ryzen 5600G + MSI B550 boards with no problems.
My motherboard is an ASUS ROG Strix variety with 4x32GB ECC RAM and the Ryzen 9 5950X works just fine.
