Don't need a xeon for more than 64GB of ram. I have a 5820K with 128 GB ram on an X99 mobo. Runs very well for it's price, though a little power hungry.

Yup, I have the same. But the spec sheet says 64gb https://ark.intel.com/products/82932/Intel-Core-i7-5820K-Pro...

Which is what confuses people. I am actually not sure what that max memory refers to. Possibly max per module?
