I've got the same issue on My Strix Z690 Gaming A D4.
Started ram overclocking and when you increase ram voltage over 1.35 or so It double boots when the PSU has been off.
I am amazed Asus offers no solution to this and it still hasn't been fixed 2 years later.

And here I was thinking I was the only one with this problem. I have the same problem on my Asus ROG Strix Z690-A WiFi D4. It boots up with the red CPU light for a second, shuts itself off again, then starts up again and goes through the normal boot process.
It only seems to happen with Corsair memory on my board (no matter if it's on the QLC or not, I tried four different Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro and Vengeance RGB Pro SL kits, some Hynix, some Micron, 32GB, two 64GB and a 128GB Micron Kit which is my main one, all with the same problem) and 1.35V or more. When I use old Crucial Ballistix Memory (that even has tighter timings), it never double boots like that, it just boots at 1.35V. The memory runs stable otherwise, it's just this weird boot issue with this board.
My PSU is an ASUS ROG THOR 1600W Titanium, in case that matters. ERP is enabled to save power when the system is off. I do not use Hybernation/Windows Fast Boot, I always shut the computer down fully.
PS.: All the memory kits work fine in our other PCs with a ASUS ROG STRIX B760-G Gaming WiFi D4 and Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Master.
Update: With the newest BIOS 3101, it seems that it sometimes boots normally on cold boot (but only if the system was off overnight, and not always) and sometimes doesn't (usually when I shut the system down and turn it back on again within the next minutes or hours), whereas with BIOS 2802 and earlier it always double booted on cold boot, no matter how long the system was powered off. So there seems to be a slight improvement n BIOS 3101, but it's still far from good.
