Please forgive me if someone has already asked this question, but I am noticing an interesting discrepancy. 

Every spec I can find on every website says that the max amount of ram that the X99E-ITX/AC can support is 32GB's of ram - EXCEPT Asrock... 

http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/X99E-ITXac/?cat=Specifications

They very clearly list that this board can support 64GB's of ram. I am planning on using a XEON E5 BTW. 

The only listed verified DIMM for 32GB's is the following stick from Crucial: 

CT32G4RFD4213.36FA1

So can we add two of these to achieve Arocks' stated 64GB's? 

Thanks

Hehehe, we're just now discussing these same sticks.

http://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3454&PN=1&title=fatal1ty-x99m-killer-possible-with-128gb-ram

And now seeing ASRock has 4 of these 32GB sticks, I'll urge you to contact them and ask that  they test them on your board, as the OP in the above thread did. Otherwise, well.... I myself don't have a straight up answer one way or the other for you.

Though, now that ASRock does have these I'd imagine them updating some or at least a few QVLs to state compatibility. But contact them instead of watching and waiting for any QVL updates

I hope so. These sticks are ECC so if you DO want the ECC function of this particular memory a Xeon is required. Period.

Otherwise, save the $$ and go regular desktop DDR4 NON-ECC from most all memory manufaturers.

I've built two systems with XEON 1650-V3 an 64 GB ECC Ram.
(Crucial 2x32 GB-Sticks from ASRock List)

Since BIOS 3.6 there is no problem - all works fine.

DIY, I have to ask. Do these sticks show up in the BIOS as pictured below? As running DDR4-3000?

You are talking specifically about the Asrock X99E-ITX/ac working with 64GB's, right?

ASRock updated the specs for this board regarding memory capacity, but the other "websites" did not.

Whom are those other websites, memory manufactures, or what? Does Crucial show the limit as 32GB?

I would believe the ASRock spec before the others. In doing so, that makes ASRock responsible for that spec. The memory support list shows two of the Crucial 32GB DIMMs as compatible.

http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/X99E-ITXac/?cat=Memory

"Xeon E5" could be v3 or v4, with an X99 board, Haswell-EP or Broadwell-EP. Broadwell-EP has an improved memory controller.

I also would love to see how those 32GB DIMMs are shown on the Main UEFI screen.

They work. What we're looking for is confirmation on the pic above. Do they show up, running at their 2133 speed, as DDR4-3000 as the pic shows?

We're dumbfounded that 2133 ECC server memory would/could run at the 3000 shown.

I've just got confirmation from Asrock that 2 x 32GB Crucials will work in this little board. 

All my components are on the way, so I'll update this thread and add the pic you are looking for when I'm up and running. I'll be using the Xeon E5-2683 v4 Broadwell.
