I have an Asus ROG Strix B550-F, Corsair Vengeance RGB 4x8 DDR4-3600mhz ram, and a 5800x CPU if the latter matters in any way. today, and I believe once before in the past, my DRAM led has lingered longer than it usually does on startup
I tend to look inside my pc when I turn it on to watch the LEDs because my VGA light has a habit of staying on, prolonging the startup, and then remaining on even after the display has come on and I'm in Windows. although my DRAM light did turn off and continue the startup smoothly, it stayed on longer than I'm used to seeing it. this is how my startup process goes;
turn the pc on, the DRAM led comes on first and then switches off within a second, the CPU light comes on, lingers a bit until the ram lights turn on, then the VGA light comes on, lingers for a little bit, and then the Boot light comes on, which stays on until I get to my lock screen
today, the DRAM led stayed on up until a second or two after the ram lights turned on, before continuing. I did restart the computer to see if this behavior happened again, but the startup looked normal like always. if I exit Bios, the DRAM lingers as well, but I think that's just because of Bios, because I tested it twice and both times, each LED did the same thing.
anyway, I'm looking at CPU-Z and HWInfo, nothing seems any different with my Memory Timings at the least, but should this be something to be concerned about or keep an eye on, like for some kind of ram failure or something? or did the motherboard just seem to bug out with the DRAM led. I'm not on the latest bios, but the one before it (2806 i believe)
