PC Won't Post after enabling XMP profiles.

I have Corsair Vengeance DDR5 2x16GB paired with an ASUS ROG STRIX B860-I mobo and Ultra 7 265K cpu. Everything is brand new but I'm unable to change bios settings related to the DDR5 modules. After enabling the XMP profile (any of them) PC sits there rebooting continuously. LED lights up RED continuous before the PC automatically reboots and it all over again.

Same problem occurs even if leaving the XMP disabled and manually entering the XMP corresponding values. Also it does same thing when trying to do any automatic overclocking using the bios or OEM provided utilities.

Is there any known problems or incompatibilities with the above mentioned hardware combination??

@xinteriX

did you verified that ram module is certified by motherboard manufacturer?

Some new ram modules compatibility is added in bios? Install new bios adnd check?

If same problem happenns , insert one by one ram and recheck, find the culprit
