Hi!

 

I recently built a system:

 

  • CPU: i5-11600kf
  • motherboard: ASUS Rog Strix H470-i
  • Graphics Card: GTX 1660 Super
  • RAM: G.SKILL Trident Z 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz F4-3200C16D-16GTZR
  • PSU: Fractal Design ION+ SFX-L 650W Gold

 

The problem is the black screen, and motherboard shows DRAM yellow light.

 

I already tried switching the RAM sticks with other ones.

I tried with one stick at a time, in both slots.

I checked the recommended RAM kits for this motherboard and it seems like its not the problem.

I checked if they are fully in the slot.

 

I don't really know any other things that I may have to try.

Could anyone suggest anything other than sending back the motherboard? Could there be any other solution?

 

Looking forward to your ideas.

 

Thanks,

Boren

Please  tell me ideas what it could be, the motherboard shows yellow light on DRAM

IIRC, DRAM light just means it isnt being detected, it can potentially be the fact that the H470's bios is not updated to support the 11th gen processors.

Thanks now Im excited 😄

So I should try updating the BIOS, but I don't really know how to do it without a dipslay, could you help me?

I checked the method of updating BIOS on asus MB without a display, but I only found examples of MBs that had a flashback USB sign on the back and a flashback button with a led lighting.

The question is now how should I update BIOS without a dipslay, and without having a flashback button and specified flashback USB port? 

 

Please help if you have any suggestions,

 

Thanks!
