My current PC specs:

  • Dell Precision T1700 Motherboard
  • Xeon E3 1275 v3
  • 32GB DDR3 1600Mhz ECC
  • 7900 XTX 24GB VRAM (Transferring to new PC)

What I want in my next PC:

  • MSI Z790-P Motherboard (with Dasharo)
  • i9-14900k
  • DDR5 192GB 5600Mhz (Non-ECC)
  • 7900 XTX 24GB VRAM

Will I see any performance increase? I'm also worried about not having ECC RAM, I will be coding a lot with my LLMs (firmware development), so part of me doesn't want to make any mistakes and future proof. I heard DDR5 has some ECC-like features, but not the same as traditional ECC. Maybe I should buy a Dell Precision 3630 motherboard which has support for upto 128GB DDR4 ECC memory? This is a dedicated LLM PC, so, not too concerned about gaming or anything.

I would like to hear your suggestions!
