Hi. I was wondering which X99 boards support Xeon CPUs such as 2630v3...i know Asus X99E-WS does fully support 2630v3 but i am looking for cheaper alternatives(since for example the 7 way SLI capability does not matter to me)...also i was wondering if there would be a problem if i tried G.skill Trident Z 3200Mhz memories on X99E-WS and 2630v3...would that be a problem?

I also apologize to you for not answering you as I have had exams in the past two weeks
If your RAM's frequency is more than 1600 hz I think you have to select the XMP 1 in order to work up to their full potrntial
Theoretically any motherboard with am LGA 2011-v3 socket will work however some boards will need a bios update
and for your particular ram kit you talked about
it wasn't mentioned in the RAM qualify vendor list
 
well 1st i would like to apologize for not being around in a long while ( i had to go on a trip ) second i searched around and i found out that all X99 ASUS and Asrock Boards will support Xeon CPUs after a bios update( i don't know if Gigabyte or MSI are the same though)...which solved half of my problem...but the Frequency of the RAMs still concern me...
