Even with this one:

https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/82932/intel-core-i7-5820k-processor-15m-cache-up-to-3-60-ghz.html

The max support is 2133MHz,right?

That is not much more then 1867MHz,so I'm happy with this Xeon cuz I rather went with 8C/16T then 6/12.

 

Intel's *officially* supported memory is DDR4-2133.

This excludes any overclocking / XMP beyond DDR4-2133.

The i7-5820K is an unlocked CPU, so it can be easily tweaked/adjusted to work with DRAM frequency above DDR4-2133.

 

I am not sure about the Xeon you have in that system, but...

You do not simply select DDR4-2666 from the drop-down menu.

The DRAM voltage, and all the timings need to be adjusted to Corsair's advertised settings.

The quick method would be to enable the XMP profile programmed into your DRAM sticks (XMP changes the frequency, voltage, and timings for you).

 

The AI Overclock Tuner setting (shown in your screenshot) should have the following options when you click on it:

 [Auto] [X.M.P.] [Manual]

 

See if you can select [X.M.P.].

If you can, and new/hidden option should appear below it, allowing you to load/select the XMP Profile.

Example below...
