There might be some other cases for less ram. If the rumor that it supports rdimm or lrdimm modules is true then it could enable much easier ecc support since there are not a lot of ecc udimm options out there

Mostly ECC UDIMMs are limited in clock speed, but many can be comfortably overclocked. I presently have four 2666 MHz ECC UDIMMs overclocked to 3200 MHz in my TRX40 workstation (M391A2K43BB1-CTD if anyone is curious).

Do the RAM sticks require separate cooling?

No. For the most part heat spreaders on RAM are a gimmick (unless you’re pushing really high OC, which this is not).

I had no problem finding ECC UDIMMs for my TR build. Sure, not that many options but you only need one.
