Is it normal for mobo warning lights to light up during boot?

When I press the power button, CPU warning lights up for 2 seconds, then VGA for 2 seconds, then BOOT for about half a second, then it boots. Is this normal?

 

Mobo is B450 gaming plus max. Any MSI B450 probably works the same way. Can anyone test and see?

Yes, it's going through the tests on those components during boot.

Yes, as long as the system boots, perfectly fine. Those lights will indicate where in the process it hangs should you have an issue, thus making debugging a bit easier.

Why is only DRAM not lighting up out of all 4 lights?
