EZ debug light on MSI Z370 Gaming plus

[arg7971]

-MSI Z370 Gaming plus
-Intel core i5 8400 LGA1151
-8GB DDR4 2400MHz Apacer (panther) RAM
-GALAX GTX 1050Ti OC 4GB
-Green HP+ 600W PSU

After I assembled the PC and turned it on, the top two EZ debug LEDs lit up.
First LED is for CPU
And the Second is for DRAM

(According to MSI manual, RAM should be installed on DIMMA2, so i did.)

Also mention that DRAM LED stay on longer than CPU, but both blink after another.


Please help me find the problem. I've checked the cables several times and changed RAM slot bug got no results.


******* Edit ******
It seemed the CPU power connector was the problem and by applying a little force, now it's working.
I changed RAM slot to DIMMB2 and it's working too.

BUT, the new problem is now the third LED gets turned on. It's complaining about graphics card. I removed it and everything worked just fine with onboard GPU, but no luck with dedicated GPU.

I will RMA the GPU or borrow a functional GPU to test. Any pc shops close by?
