Hey guys so I just got my new parts to upgrade my PC.

Mbd - MSI B350m Gaming Pro
Cpu - Ryzen 7 1700x
Ram - G.Skill Ripjaw 5 DDR4-2400
Gpu - Evga gtx 1060
Cooling system - Corsair H100i

It's not displaying though it is connected through VGA from Mbd to the monitor and it's also stopped at the DRAM Led indicator.(2nd down from the top). Everything is compatible I've run the checks and double checked to make sure all parts are supported by each other. Not sure where to go from here without the display?

Yeah you can clear the CMOS, should actually have done that first, but that's fine. If you can update the BIOS without a display, then you should do that as well, though I don't think it's possible. But it really seems like a hardware issue to me, maybe...

As suggested, try testing each RAM kit separately, and all the different combinations as well. If you have only one stick, you might want to check if that kit is working or not, perhaps by testing it in a someone else's system that works properly.

Well you should take a few things then - take your graphics card, your power supply, and the RAM kit when going to your buddy. First test the RAM. If it works, then put your graphics card, if it still works, remove all connections and install your power supply's cables instead. If the system still works, then your motherboard or CPU is faulty. If, at some point, your friend's system fails to boot, then whatever you added before that is the probably the culprit for failure of your build.

Shektron Idk if he'd be up for doing all that. Ram is easy. Gpu is fairly easy but he won't go through and do the psu. All my parts were from a preexisting PC that I was using literally yesterday perfectly fine. So I'll just give him the ram for now.

Hey so I was able to test the ram at work in my office on another pc I was building it worked fine and completed post. Do you think there may be a solution in a CMOS reset or possible a BIOS update through USB(Even without the display?)?

I submitted an exchange on amazon for the board and thats due to arrive on the 5th but I figure might as well keep cracking at this mbd while I can then I can just cancel the return.

But it really seems like a hardware issue to me, maybe the DIMM slots are bad, because if the RAM works in another PC, and the same RAM is giving a DRAM error in another PC, it's probably the motherboard, or there's just a compatibility issue, which doesn't seem to be the case.

Yeah I feel that. I'm gonna try to do the CMOS when I get home. If to no avail sounds like I'm SOL and gotta wait 3 long dreadful days until my new mbd arrives. Thank you for all the help my friend!
