For free, I can't say. For a price, quite likely:

Talk about early adopters... how did you manage to even get one yet?

I know, there are always some way to do so, but these processors are not yet generally available. ASRock does not even have all the UEFI/BIOS updates posted yet for Broadwell-E type processors, HEDT or XEON.

On the other hand, there are but three Haswell-E HEDT models, and about 50 Xeon Haswell-E models. So supporting the Broadwell-E XEON line as soon as possible makes sense.

Intel sure does not make it easy for mother board manufactures, they just put these processors on the shelves, and it's the mother board manufactures that get to supply the UEFI/BIOS updates and deal with the users that don't have a Haswell-E processor to perform the necessary UEFI/BIOS update. Don't forget the ongoing support if the UEFI/BIOS update is not done correctly. If it all does not work, who's on the front line trying to deal with it? (some moderator in a mobo forum)

This reminds me of the PCIe SSD and PCIe NVMe SSD situation. SSD manufactures release these products, and at least provide an NVMe driver (sometimes) for the SSD, but it's the mother board manufactures that must deal with the OS installation support and compatibility.

Something is just not quite right about this situation.

What are the chances that ASRock would send me an updated bios chip?

F4-2400C15Q-32GRR is listed on the Memory support list for the ASROCK X99 WS, the only difference between that and F4-2400C15Q-32GRK should be the colour, the final letter indicating Red or Black.

This is of little help of course , until you get some more RAM to play with.

I've got a cheap stick of ram on the way that was listed specifically on the supported ram list. Hopefully that helps. I wish the code was more specific. 

Yes this is a new build and I got this error on the first power up. I've checked all of my connections. I'll try clearing the CMOS with the battery method when I get back to the machine. Is there no specific description of code 19?
