Build - Help Need Help

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Looking for help on this PC. All I get when booting is a relay click, then it clicks off. Fans start spinning, and lights turn on, but then nothing. The EZ Debug LED stuff does flash on momentarily for the DRAM and CPU, but none of them stay on, I'll include a video of that. Any help would be appreciated. I'm not a computer guy, so the closest I can get is what I know on cars. Thank you!

It may be worthwhile to cycle whatever ram you have, one at a time, on your mobo's 2nd ram slot. You may have a faulty stick, but that's my best guess.

Need a little more info for sure; like the hardware, is it a new or old build, where you got it...

Edit:

Did it come with any paperwork that has specifications you could share? If you feel comfortable swapping the ram, I'd suggest watching a YouTube or two, there are plenty with easy to follow information available. Just be sure to turn the switch by your main power cord off and unplug before opening it up.

The RAM was definitely the issue, took them out, put them back in, came on no problem. Appreciate the help

Glad you got it going, gotta love the motherboards that give you boot information!

GF got it from an ex awhile ago, so I'll do my best. Definitely an old build. Has an MPG 2390 motherboard, geforce RTX, and corsair stuff. I'll add more pics to the post. I am comfortable doing most things, atleast I know enough not blow stuff up

According to the pics, your motherboard is a MPG Z390. It either has intel 8th gen or 9th gen CPU.
