Question DRAM LED, no POST. Definitely RAM Issue?

Apologies that this is my first post. I have hit a wall, and am seeking some advice. I was playing Call of Duty last night. When suddenly my PC crashed. And it hasn't posted since.....

The DRAM LED is on, so i've gone through all the normal checks. However nothing is working.

However! When I remove the GPU, the DRAM LED goes off, and is replaced obviously by the VGA. Is that normal, or should both be on? It's lockdown here in the UK so I can't get to a shop to try my ram and GPU, so i'll have to order everything. :(

So far I've:
  • Tried 1 RAM stick.
  • Switched both ram sticks around.
  • completely disassembled and rebuilt the thing on a test bench. (AKA box)
  • cleared CMOS
  • removed Mobo battery.
  • swapped PSU
  • cleaned everything.

    Spec:
  • Auros B450 Elite
  • Ryzen 5 2600
  • 2 x 8GB Corsair vengeance 3000mhz
  • ROG Matrix 980ti
  • EVGA 650w PSU. + Corsair TX850M (both tested)
