Z890 Maxiums Extreme - Ram won't XMP and can't seem to set my NVME to gen 5

Got the new computer up and running today.  Running a 285k in the maximus extreme as the title says.  Running corsair dominator platinum 7200mhz ram, but none of the xmp profiles will boot.  I did see a youtube video where Jay said that he was having issues with different brands of ram.  Is this something likely to be fixed in a bios update?

The other issue I am having is in the bios it only gives me the option for my nvme (crucial T705) to run at gen 4 speeds.  It's in the slot with the cooler on top of it, and the manual confirms this is a gen 5 slot so why is there no option?  It's running far slower then it should be which is what led me to check.

Sorry guys I should have come back and replied to this ages ago.

The SSD issue was just some bios settings I had played with, after restarting the bios I found all my drives and got everything working properly.
The RGB on the corsair ram is a huge PITA.  I couldn't get the stupid corsair software to sync with armory crate, so i just have everything running on one static colour
