I bought and built this PC as my first pc a few months ago. It worked fine at first, but then it stopped booting after about a month even with XMP disabled (Q-Code 55 Asus Motherboard). So I got a replacement ram kit from Corsair, and it worked for a week and stopped booting again. My solution was only using 3 sticks instead of 4 (DIMM 1 empty). I recently switched to 2 sticks and it still worked. My troubleshooting attempts consist of trying another working gpu (3070 Ti) and another working CPU (i3 12100f). I also used to have an Asus Z690-e Gaming Wifi mobo, but I switched to the Asus Z790 Maximus Hero for better RAM compatibility. Since it still didn't work, I just bought new ram, which is G.Skill 7200MT/s CL34 4x16GB. My first boot was using the old XMP profile from the Corsair ram, and it worked fine. Then I tried re-enabling XMP 1 to get proper timings for my new ram, and it didn't boot properly. My games would crash, and when I turned off my PC it blue screened. So, I tried it at 6600MT/s, and my PC seems to be working fine.
Current specs:
i9 13900k
4x16GB G.Skill 7200MT/s CL34 (At 6600MT/s)

Using GPU Riser (Hyte Y60 Case, thats why)
