Question Blue screen on boot using XMP on AM5 ?

Hello. I have the Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 2X16 6000 CL36 (CMH32GX5M2D6000C36 ver.4.43.02) memory kit on a MSI Pro B650M-A WIFI with Ryzen 5 7600X CPU. The ram kit is not on the motherboard's QVL list, and doesn't support EXPO profiles. I use XMP profile (36-36-36-76, 1.35V) and it runs fine for 20 days or so (daily use and stressed use) but after that I get blue screens after entering my login password on every boot without exception. stop codes are MEMORY_MANAGEMENT and SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION.

I can solve the issue by disabling XMP, boot windows once and enable XMP again. I don't mind it since it's not really a frequent issue and only needs two restarts to solve; But I would like to know what exactly is the problem and solve it permanently. Does anyone have any idea to what is the problem here?
By the way, the BIOS is up to date; and I'm using an all core voltage curve (-30) on CPU.
Any suggestion would be very appreciated.

I would check for any hardware drivers that need updating, to include bios updates for your motherboard. If it was working fine for three weeks something has changed probably in your system. You could also check to see if your voltage curve is the culprit by resetting the system to original settings.
Thank you for your reply.
All my drivers are updated and everything is working fine. It's hard to remember every little thing that happened during this time period but I haven't change anything major. Beside that, if there was in fact a hardware issue It wouldn't just solve by disabling XMP and enabling it again. Don't you agree?
I can rest my voltage curve but I don't know if it would do any good, since the problem is so infrequent and persistent while it occurs. (It doesn't seem to be a case of unstable undervolt)
P.S.: I've ran windows memory diagnostics and memtest86; No problems there.
