DIMM doesn't mean SDRAM. Both EDO and SDRAM can be used in DIMM module, 
but HX chipset does not support SDRAM. So only FP/EDO DIMM can be use in
ABIT IT5H. ECC is for error correction. If you are going to use SDRAM, get
a new TX motheboard which has better SDRAM support and Ultra 33, but
cannot cache more than 64M ram.
