CPU: i7-8700k
Cooler: Kraken x62
MOBO: ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-E
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x16 GB 3200 MHz RGB (CMR32GX4M2C3200C16W, 16-18-18-36, 1.35V)
PSU: EVGA 750W

I'm trying to boot my computer for the first time and I'm getting no display. My motherboard has the DRAM LED lit up and my RAM doesn't light up. Everything else is lighting up/spinning.

Is this indicative of dead RAM or dead slots or do the lights not come on until a successful boot?
