Are there any tests on how important it is to have RDRAM with ECC (vs. w/o ECC), or does anyone know? It certainly "sounds" like something you'd want, but is it a feature worth the extra $$? Thanks.

It depends on what you're doing, but usually it's not worth it.
The extra data security isn't needed for normal use, but the speed loss is small. If you're building a server for a bank or something, then use ECC. Otherwise, skip it.
Oh, you may need ECC DDR to use more than 3 slots on your motherboard, depending on the type.
