Title says it all. anyone know of any Xeons that work with X99 Boards? Also i have seen some boards that say they are compatible with some xeons yet the board is DDR4 and the xeon is rated for DDR3 will that actually matter if the board says it still supports the xeon?

X99 works with a whole bunch of E5 v3 series Xeons. Other v dont work.

Then it's wrong. Haswell-e and Broadwell-e are DDR4 specific

There are some Chips made for some company - quanta I believe - that are for DDR3 based 2011-3 boards only. Those won't work on normal x99 boards whatsoever. Its pretty obscure stuff though, but I wouldn't recommend anyone pick those up.

Xeon e5649@4.4 GHz on Asus Rampage II Extreme or Gigabyte x58a-OC (whatever I feel like to set up at a time) , 6x4 GB Kingston HyperX 1600, Gainward GTX 670 Phantom, Samsung 840 Evo 240 GB, BeQuiet L8 530W

X99 can support V3 and V4 but maybe somewhat dependent on BIOS version. Check support page for the board.

 

Example

ok my main thing is on some of these mobo specifically this one and the asus x99 deluxe II board some of the cpu i have googled are spec'd at ddr3. But the boards are ddr4. yet they say they support the chip. Do i trust the mobo manufacturer for support or the cpu maf?

Well, if you'd specify which specific CPU you've checked (and where your information was from), it would be quite easy to verify.

I suspect you've accidentally looked up the spec for a V1 or V2 CPU.

There are some E5-V3 that use DDR3 such as  the E5-2418L v3 but it uses a different CPU socket. Personally I have not seen any x99 supporting DDR3 even though the IMC hints at this being possible. Most likely a typo but as @BLAfH says, if you can post these CPU numbers it should be easy enough to check unless it's some obscure engineering sample or something very special.

Yeah i wish i could go back and find i just looked through the asus list one day and randomly highlighted and searched with google for the cpu to gauge prices and specifics. There are ALOT so if i do run across another that does mention that i will be sure to post it and double check i have the correct model cpu.

Thank you all for your help
