I'm trying to upgrade my RAM from 4x16GB 6000 G.SKILL Ripjaws S5 to a 2x64GB 5600 Kingston Fury Beast kit, but I'm having trouble getting my system to post. I've already reset the CMOS by removing the battery and shorting the pins, but I'm still not getting a display. Interestingly, when I put one of my old sticks back in, it works fine. My motherboard is running BIOS version 1820, and I noticed that version 1630 should support high-capacity memory kits up to 256GB, although the product page states a maximum of 192GB. I'm using a 13900KF CPU, which I heard should support at least 128GB, but I'm uncertain if that includes a 2x64GB configuration. Any advice on how to troubleshoot this issue?

Have you tried using a single stick of the 64GB RAM to see if that works? Also, make sure you're installing the RAM in the correct slots, typically slots 2 and 4 are recommended for dual-channel setup. It could be a compatibility issue with your motherboard and the specific RAM kit you have.
I tried one stick in slot A2 and also two sticks in A2 and B2, but still no post.
