Question ASUS ROG Z370-H orange DRAM LED

[Xyphon]

Built a new rig, powered it up, wouldn't boot. Looked inside the case and when it powers up the DRAM orange LED comes on for 3 to 5 seconds then goes off, tried all RAM configurations and tried all without the GPU installed and still comes up with the same issue.

Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix Z370-H Gaming
Ram: 2x8 GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000 MHz
Processor: Intel i7-9700k
GPU: MSI RTX 2070 8GB
SSD: Samsung 860 evo 1TB

The Z370 mothertboard doesn't support the 9700k out of the box , it needs a BIOS update. Get a Z390 board or a low end 8th gen CPU to update the BIOS.
