Yes, RDIMMS can work with CPUs lacking ECC support. You'll need to verify compatibility for your specific hardware before using it.

No. The compatibility of using registered DIMMs relies on the motherboard, not the CPU. Using RDIMMs on a board that doesn’t support them will likely cause the system to fail to boot. Additionally, trying ECC RAM with a CPU that lacks support usually results in a non-functional system.
