To begin, powering up the motherboard triggers fans and LEDs, including those on my RAM modules, yet the DRAM troubleshooting panel lights up while the screen stays in standby. I've already tried one RAM slot and reinstalled the RAM, but the issue persists. To be honest, this is my first build—please accept it might seem simple. My setup: Motherboard model Asus TUF 570X with Wi-Fi; CPU Ryzen 5 5800X; RAM Corsair Pro 3600Hz CL18 16GB x 2 (AMD optimized); graphics RTX 2060 12GB; SSD M.2 SAMSUNG 970 EVO Plus 1TB; power supply ASUS ROG STRIX 80+ Gold 750W.

Dram light indicates a postcode issue. The motherboard guide should explain the steps. The font size is too large, making it difficult to read.

Adjusted the font, thank you. I'll review your motherboard manual now.

Everything seems fine overall. Just a quick note—my standard setup matches Ariel 14. If it turns off instantly, it might be a power supply issue causing protection mode activation. Possible causes include RAM, motherboard, or CPU problems. Or it could have simply failed during that initial test, which is often the first step. Updated August 18, 2022 by Bombastinator
