If anything ECC would be better for performance, as it'd allow to clock memory higher. It's a mystery how Intel has managed to convince people ECC = enterprise/server market. The real cost of ECC is 1/8 more memory (and datatraces on the motherboard)... and if anything, virtually all intel cpus have the needed support/transistors in the memory controller, it's just desktop variants have that part fused off on purpose.
