Good news: Corsair DDR4 Memory now works at XMP rating 3000 and passes short stability tests.
This was accomplished with the good advice of Arturo, in Corsair Tech Support, who suggested trying Gigabyte Bios release F5a (beta). I had ignored F5a because it was older than F5, which I was already using. The XMP settings as displayed in the bios are 3000 GHz, Vmem=1.2v*, sub timing 15-17-17-35, tRFC=390. I have not tried setting these manually in bios F5, yet.
BTW, under F5a, the Intel ETU displays different memory parameter values than the bios, so IMHO, there is still some development work to be done in this beta release...
* Edit: Vmem displays 1.2v in F5a bios "Advanced Voltage Settings" but displays 1.368v in bios "PC Health Status/DRAM Channel A/B..."
