Hi there!
I've recently built a new PC, but I don't get it to boot. The MB shows a red DRAM light.
All (power)connections should be fine, I've installed the RAM in the A2 / B2 slots but also tried A1/B1.
The RGB lights on the RAM (as well as on the fans) work just fine, but I am only getting a black screen and can't even get to the bios.
Already unplugged it, pulled the CMOS battery for a few minutes, but also to no effect.
I'm using the following specs:
- ASRock B660 pro RS
- 2x8gb Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro (CMW16X4M2C3200C16W)
- Intel i5 12400F
- Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060
- be quiet 400W
- Samsung 980 m.2 SSD
I know the PSU is a bit underwhelming, but I've seen this system run. Insufficient power should be the problem - at least not while booting.
I don't have spare RAM to test, so that is - at the moment - not an option.
Any solution I could try?
Thx in advance!

Try the board outside the chassis, with 1 memory module and of course CPU and graphics card.
Also check the pins in the CPU socket, and if possible another monitor and cable, and use a wired USB keyboard and mouse.
Also remove the M.2, so just the board.

Kind Regards
