It looks to me like that board simply doesn't support ECC. The specs on the ASUS web site specifically say the supported memory is non-ECC RAM.  There's another thread here confirming this: https://smallformfactor.net/forum/threads/does-asus-rog-strix-x570-i-gaming-supports-ecc-memory.14514/


I have successfully used ECC on a number of X570/B550 motherboards:

  • Asus X570 Prime Pro/CSM (ATX)
  • Asus TUF Gaming B550M-Plus (MATX)
  • Asrock B550M Steel Legend (MATX)
  • Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master (ATX)
  • Gigabyte B550I Aorus Pro AX (ITX)

In all of the above, the specs mention ECC.


The only problem I encountered was that 4 sticks of 16Gb 3200Mhz ECC RAM did not work out of the box; this was fixed by manually setting the speed to 3000MHz.
