Hi guys, just built a new pc. My first All the parts arrived besides the GPU. I dont live in USA so it takes him time to arrive from amazon. In the meantime, because i have the normal i7-12700 i decided to try and run the computer just to check if everything was done properly ( with the built in gpu cores). As u can see, the pc boots and all the fans and rgb works (left fan doesnt have rgb) but there is a problem. The orange light in the DRAM debug light pops up. Its not blinking, just still. And my monitor doesnt show anything, it doesnt recognize the computer. Looked it up and tried to boot with 1 ram stick in different positions but wouldnt work. I tried removing the cmos battery for 5 mins and put it back in, didn’t work… Should i just wait for the gpu to arrive? Can i do something now? Thx. Relevant Computer specs: cpu- core i7 12700. Ram- corsair vegance pro ddr4 3200. 2x16. Liquid Cooler- coolermsater masterliquid ML240L v2. Motherboard: asus tuf gaming b660 plus wifi d4. Only memory: samsung 980 m.2 1tb storage. Thank you for help.

Verify the RAM is correctly installed. Ensure the EPS cable is securely connected (the one near the CPU in the upper left corner). These are typically the most frequent issues I encounter. Additionally, confirm a fan is powered into the main CPU cooler fan connector.

Your PCIe cable is only plugged in the PSU and not linked to a GPU yet—this could be why it’s not working.

The 4 pin extra for my cup is a little bit off, that may be it? Ram sits properly and there is a fan in cpu fan header.

That seems correct. Disconnect the left unit and attempt to start it again. The second unit is just a backup, especially useful when dealing with extreme time settings.

Disconnect the last connector and connect it to the opposite port, making sure it’s oriented correctly. It’s quite simple to do this wrong.
