Predator Orion 9000 - Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro RAM not working

Hey,

I planed on upgrading my RAM of my Orion 9000. In order to do so i got my hands on 2x16 GB, 2666mHz modules from Corsair. However they just wont work.
My System already has 2 of the normal 16 GB green ram sticks in slot 5 and 7, wich also run at 2666mHZ. I tried almost every single slot order, but as soon as one or both corsair module are installed my screen doesn´t recive a signal. The RAM itself is working, since it glows after pressing the power button. I also tried removing the original green ram modules and replaced them with the corsair ones, but no luck either. Clearing the CMOS also didn´t help. My CPU is an i9 9980xe.
Is there anything I could do to get my Corsair RAM to work?

Thanks

When looking for memory that meets the 2666 speeds, you need to verify you are looking at SPD Speed, not XMP speed. IIRC the Vengeance RGB Pro is rated at 2133MHz, not 2666MHz.
