Need to ask a few questions.
1.  What memory is compatible with this motherboard?  I see a lot of DDR4-3200 only listed for 170 Chipset or Broadwell-E only
2.  Is DDR4-3200 still 100 Mhz bus?
 
Thanks

    Yes using standard corsair C16 3200 XMP profile and the bclk stays at 100.

    Great, Thanks!  Having the hardest time finding DDR4-3200 that work with this board.  No QVL available...

    Pretty much any standard C16 3200. They rarely update QVL past a year or so on. Especially if there's no BIOS updates adding capability. Specifically, I'm running

    Hemi...thanks.  I had a tech at GSkill tell me that DDR4-3200 required a bclk of 125, but you say 100.  I trust your settings...granted...Corsair vs. GSkill.

    Hemi...just noticed that you have Broadwell-E.  I am not sure that the memory will work with Haswell E

    Sure it will or at least it should.  Many Haswell-e @ 3200 mhz w/ a 100 BCLK members around.  Just search this thread.

    I've been using this kit for a few months now, with zero problems. Note: I paid around $100 less for this kit back then that it's listed for now, for whatever reason.

    I had a special code for Fry's today and tried two different kits of this:
     
    https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820236097
     
    First kit recognized by XMP profile on the motherboard...but one stick died within an hour...took back...tried another kit...same exact one...XMP had no idea what it was...set it up manually...and during reboot checked all the settings and it looked good.  Three blue screens later...out it went...
     
    Some of the worst memory I have ever tried.  Checked the Corsair forums and believe it or not...multiple threads of the memory dying in the first week...locking up machines.  What has Corsair done to their QC?

    Wow, I wouldn't expect that. I can understand an occasional failure, it happens....
    I don't have a lot of experience with X99. But when I was researching DDR4-3200 for my Classy [I know u have FTW-K], especially in Gskill There is a D or a Q in the RAM part number. D= Dual channel Q= Quad. Make sure you are getting the quad channel RAM. QVL list here ,isn't it? http://www.evga.com/support/motherboard/  pick your board from list. 
    I like that RAM Seth posted ,but not that price. Yes ,I'm cheap. LOL

    Before I tried the Corsair, I spoke with one of their techs...he was adamant about the fact that all it was is Vengeance memory with lights.  Vengeance is on the QVL list.  However, this particular line is problematic if you read the Corsair forums.  Sticks dying in an hour...weeks, etc.  It got so bad at some point that Corsair was overnighting replacements.  Something about these just don't jive.  Again...the tech I spoke to tried to tell me it was an isolated incident...14 pages of complaints in two threads that I found...and there are more.  He then backtracked and said that they addressed the issue and the new ram wouldn't be problematic.  Either Frys had old stock or the issue still exists.  I did talk to GSkill.  They said that If I wanted guarantee to work, either Trident Z or Ripjaws 4 series. 
     
    I'm not cheap, but 300 + for memory did set me back a bit.  Been saving for either a step up to 1080TI or a 1440p monitor...don't want to spend it all in one place.
     
     
    I will say this...my Asus X99-A was nowhere near as picky as this X99 FTW K...but I like the K a lot.

    That's unfortunate to hear bob.  I do know the RAM prices jumped this year.  Not sure why but the market warned about it.

    The sick thing is that I was so sure that I'd be more than fine with 32gb of RAM. After all, I'd been doing ok with 12gb.

    Then I installed SolidWorks, which I picked up with a military discount for designing stuff for my 3D printer.

    OMG. That program is a real memory hog. When I've got lots of other programs open and I open up SolidWorks I'll get these system resources warnings. It's annoying as hell, and doubly so since buying another kit of that same memory is so much more expensive than it was last summer.

    You don't say. I remember when I first time installed Adaptec maxView software. Suddenly system became somewhat sluggish. Then I discovered that tomcat server running in the background was eating ~1GB of RAM alone even without a load (with 32 GB kit it shouldn't matter but it did) and isn't even you know anything special like mentioned SolidWorks. Because everything can works perfectly well without AmV hog I simply uninstalled it after a while because I do everything in card BIOS or drive pool controls anyway which eats ~110 MB split across 4 services(!).

    There's a couple of fixes for the resource issues if you hit up the Solidworks site. You can check Task manager see what your actual memory use is.

    I still have 16GB, 4x4.
    I was forced to save little because budget, and when I bought memory 16GB cost more than now 32GB.
