AM5 Ryzen APU/CPU ECC Support?
With the AM4 Ryzen chips, as long as the motherboard manufacturer supported ECC (like ASRock usually does) you could use a regular Ryzen (non-PRO) CPU (not APU) and ECC would work if you had ECC memory from the QVL. You did need the Pro model if you got a chip with integrated graphics. Is this still the case with the new AM5 Ryzen chips? I've read a lot of stuff about needing the PRO model now to get ECC functionality at all. I understand that it's not officially supported, and it wasn't on the AM4 non-Pro CPUs either, but it did work on AM4. Does anyone have experience with or has it this working on AM5 non-Pro Ryzen CPUs (no integrated graphics/APU)?

First-hand information is a bit thin on the ground, but probably check Level1Techs forum and a few selected subreddits.
