Yellow DRAM debug light won't go out

Hello. So, I've just booted up my first pc build for the first time, and the yellow DRAM light wont turn off - it cycles through the red CPU debug light just fine, but then gets stuck on the yellow DRAM debug light. Im also not getting any video to my monitor through the GPU.

 

Specs:

* CPU: Intel i5-12600K
* GPU: NVidia RTX 3060 (12GB)
* RAM: 32 GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 (2x16GB sticks)
* Motherboard: MSI Pro B760M-A Wifi DDR4

 

What I've tried so far: Reseating RAM, swapping RAM around, trying RAM one at a time, swapping to iGPU, checking the Mobo pins for any bent ones, reseating CPU... I'd try updating the BIOS, but add I said above, I don't have any display output. 

 

Can someone please help? Thanks!

Remove the GPU and use the onboard integrated HDMI port on the motherboard. You must remove the GPU to enable the integrated video

Remove all but one module of RAM, swap it around. 

You can also Clear CMOS to set Bios to defaults

It is under warranty. Return it for a replacement. 

During setup you may have shorted the motherboard. You shouldn't  mess with it since it is under warranty, just replace it.
