I've got four sticks of Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000MHz RAM, but I'm having trouble booting up my PC when I use all four (4x16 GB). I bought two sticks a year ago, which have different versions on them; one runs at 1.35V and the other at 1.4V, but they seemed to work fine together before. The other two sticks came in a matching 2x16 pack. I thought as long as they were the same brand and model, they would be compatible. Am I mistaken? When I plug in all four sticks, my PC won't even boot to BIOS and just hangs with a yellow memory light. Any advice?

Mixing different versions of RAM can definitely cause booting issues. If you’re using all default BIOS settings with no XMP/EXPO profiles, it might be hard to get them to work well together. Also, can you tell me which motherboard and CPU you’re using? It might help narrow it down!
No XMP or anything—I've got an ASUS ProArt B760 Creator WiFi. Just realized I mistyped, I meant "B" not "Z"!
