Hi I build my first pc but before I try to power the system there is this red light that flashing for 2-3 sec in the left corner near the flash+ and the CPU. my motherboard is Msi b450 gaming pro carbon ac. It need 8+4 pin for the cpu but in the manual says there is no need because I’m not gonna oc. Could that missing 4pin be the problem?
 

I didn’t check the cpu because I’m sure that I installed in the correct. do you think it’s a cpu issue?
