Hi everybody,

This is probably my second post here. I am glad I am writing my issue. I recently assembled my computer with this following configuration and Don't know why but facing this issue of boot. Need some guidance. There is this DRAM LED lits up and stays. I am not sure if RAM is the issue or Motherboard. I have tried all the different slots. What possibly can be the problem? ANybody?

Config is :-
Asus Rog Zenith Extreme
AMD 1920X Threadripper
Asus Nvidia 1080 Geforce
Corsair Vengence LPX 16GB X 2 (3000GHz)
Corsair H80i V2
RM1000x PSU
Corsair 980GB SSD
Seagate 2TB FireCUDA
Corsair 760T Cabinet
 
Solution
Is the ram in slots A1 and C1?

Altho anything above 2666 ram is OC, according to the site

8 x DIMM, Max. 128GB, DDR4 3600(O.C.)/3200(O.C.)/2800(O.C.)/2666/2400/2133 MHz ECC and non-ECC, Un-buffered Memory *
update the BIOS via flashback feature:
how to on page 58:

BIOS:

install the RAM in the slots (page 21 in manual):
DIMM_C1 and DIMM_A1
from left (back connectors of motherboard) to right the 3rd slot and on the right of the CPU the 2nd slot

Both 8-pin EPS power connectors plugged in and not only one? (page 52)
