I'm having trouble getting my new PC to boot up. I built it with an AMD Ryzen 5 9600X processor and an B850 EAGLE WIFI6E motherboard, paired with Crucial Pro 32GB DDR5 RAM CL36 6000MHz. Whenever I power it on, the DRAM red light stays lit. I've already tested each RAM slot with both of my 16GB RAM sticks individually, but nothing works. I'm beginning to suspect that either the motherboard or CPU might not support this RAM type. Is it necessary to update the BIOS for 6000MHz support? I heard about BIOS Flashback for updates, but I'm unsure if that's a smart move.

Also, make sure to give your PC some time after powering on. Sometimes it takes a bit for the memory training process to complete, so letting it run for a couple of minutes could help.
Have you tried booting up with just one RAM stick at a time? That can often help isolate any issues with the sticks themselves.
