The skinny on DRAM choices if you want plug-and-play is this:
1) Stick with kits rated at no faster than DDR3-1600.
2) Anything faster than DDR3-1600, "might" need manual tuning.
3) Go for kits that are qualified on X79, check ASUS QVL and memory vendor QVL.
You can add those three to the other tips posted in the Ivy-E OC guide stickied within this forum.
That's all I can advise. Can't tell you 100% every kit will work plug-and-play with a given CPU.
as you can see he says no faster than 1600mhz normally I wouldn't worry as such as ive never really had ram not be compatible but since ive had such a long wait already waiting on this ram and mobo I don't want anything slowing me down once they do finally arrive
does manual tuning just mean enabling XMP cause I have zero experience tuning ram
