I'd recommend an AM2+ or AM3 board, and a low-power AMD CPU. I've been using an Asus M4A785-M (which supports unregistered DDR2 ECC RAM) with good results. I have 4 GB of ECC RAM installed.
It won't be as low-power as an Atom system, but I don't know of any Atom-based boards that support ECC. If there is such a board, I'd love to know about it.
