The Xeon e5 2683 v3 supports up to 768GB of DDR4-1600/1866/2133 MHz RAM.

yeah, this I know, what I want to know is if it needs to be a ecc memory or I can use a normal ddr4 memory with it

The CPU supports both. BUT the motherboard not necesseraly, and often supports only non EEC or EEC RAM but not both.
Thus short answer is " it will depend on your motherboard "
