Thank you for telling us about your experience. It is important information, a real world experience and validation.
DDR4 at 2400 should not be a difficult memory speed, or OC, for an Intel HEDT processor. But a Xeon is a different animal, and why it won't (apparently?) work with memory speeds not far above its max memory speed spec (2133) is curious. I'm not saying the Xeon should go above 2133, but wondering why is that a hard limit.
The i7-6800K memory speed spec is up to 2400. I have 2666 memory running with my i7-6800K, so it can go higher.
