I turned on the PC for the first time and the DRAM led has been red for a few minutes. What is going on?

DDR5 ram?

What are the full system specs? 

 

The DRAM light being on for a while isn't super abnormal depending on the system as that indicates memory training, and Memory training can take can take a while. However, it's usually at most 1-2 minutes, not longer unless you have 128GB+ of RAM. This is probably something with the sticks itself, and testing single sticks in each slot is a good idea, though for better recommendations we need to know the exact hardware combo.

There's still a lot of 6000 rated Flare X5 kits, pull out a stick and look at the exact model number. 

DDR5 RAM training?

Its been like 15 mins I don't think is that. I also tried reseating and using just one stick with no result. 

15 minutes straight or with restarts and re-seats inbetween?

if yes, you can try resetting CMOS and then trying just one RAM stick
