I recently adjusted the RAM settings in my BIOS because I noticed it was running at 4000 MHz while it's rated for 6000 MHz. I changed the memory profile to XMP and set the frequency to 6000 MHz. After saving and exiting the BIOS, my PC refuses to show any display. Can anyone suggest how I can get it to boot up again? I'm running an i9 12900K with a Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX motherboard and Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000 MHz RAM.

Maybe you should reset the RAM settings back to what they were before. That might solve the issue since the system isn’t displaying anything now.
You could try removing all but one RAM stick to see if it will boot. If that doesn't work, consider resetting the CMOS. It sounds like your hardware might not fully support 6000 MHz, and trying to force the frequency might not be the best idea.
I noticed the CPU speed was at 4900 MHz. Could that mean my CPU isn't set high enough for 6000 MHz RAM?
Any idea which component might not be supporting those higher speeds?
