Hi im having problems with my boot up when i replaced my back fan with new 4pin fan. Well i tried to start my computer but it blinks red light on memok/dram. Ive tried to push memok button and reseted cmos even i reinstalled the older fan back. Ive also took the ram out and back (2x4gb kingston hyperx) but every startup the fans start normally on cpu cooler on gpu and both front and back fan but the dram/memok red light is blinking. Should i just wait? How long does it take to complete memok?

you mean the initial start up "everything fine beep" .?( i can't hear it with the little speaker)
It is still flashing red over and over, If you can get in to the UEFI make sure the boot priority is set to your OS drive, sometimes the firmware will keep resetting back to the "optimized defaults" and even then it is not always optimal for everyone. with that set you DRAM to the standard non OC clocks and timings and voltages. Actually make sure the Memory DIMM is seated firmly first, could be slightly out of place , never know.. Then give 'er a boot
