I'm dealing with a Ryzen 5 5600X setup paired with an MSI B550-A-Pro and 2x8GB RAM. Both RAM modules are installed, but the system powers on with a CPU light. I've double-checked cables, inspected for bent pins, reset the BIOS, and updated it. When booting with just one stick, the light switches between CPU and DRAM. I've tried all possible solutions but nothing resolved the issue. It's becoming really frustrating.

Have you tested each RAM slot with a known working stick (not your own)? It’s a bit unclear what you mean, but if it’s RAM or a dead memory channel, it should boot in one of the four slots. If not, the problem might be with the CPU or motherboard.
