joec_10 · Oct 13, 2014

Hello i just put to gether my computer everything turns on but the ram has a red blighting light and the bios shows a red light too I hooked up every thing right but the ram slots only one side clips down is this normal or do i got a dead bored because I have ddr3 1333 ghz ram

what specific RAM do you have?

The one side clip down is normal - it is an ASUS feature. As long as the RAM stick is fully seated then its fine. Have you installed into the right slot?

Otherwise, try the ASUS MemOk! feature.

May i have the pci cable connected to the wrong slot in the psu? it is full modular I'm not sure the manuel dont explain how to hook it up

tambeshakunt · Oct 13, 2014

The Pcie cable will only go in one way...the pins are keyed. Does the GPU fan spin?

joec_10 · Oct 13, 2014

yes they do I'm so lost I just want it to work right because I have no printer to RMA this ARG Payed so much money for it to not do this

joec_10 · Oct 13, 2014

How do i set up the reset and power leds on the motherboard?

tambeshakunt · Oct 13, 2014

Could you post a picture of your build, when its turned on with fans spinning?

Dw we will get this sorted as much as possible.
