Issue with MSI Z390-A PRO EZ Debug VGA lit on

Hi there,

Got this motherboard: MSI Z390-A PRO with a Procesador Intel Core I3-9100f Bx80684i39100f and Kingston Fury Beast Black 8GB 3200Mhz DDR4 CL16 UDIMM Memoria Gamer Para PC Color Negro (KF432C16BB/8).

Got everything connected (without SSD) the EZ Debug LED turns on as follow; CPU > DRAM (remains lit on for 3 seconds) > VGA remains lit and never turn down nor reboot or anything else.

Already tried to change the ram to all the slots, reviewed if no pins were bend at the CPU slot and also removed the CMOS battery to reset the BIOS but still VGA EZ Debug lit on.

Any other idea? I've a GPU (pcie) but not sure if it will be detected without drivers.

The VGA LED remains lit? (Be sure to check our basic guide on Debug LEDs here)

Does your GPU have sufficient power from the PSU and all the power cables are plugged in? Is your Monitor attached to the GPU? Is your GPU plugged into the top PCIe slot?

Yes VGA LED remains lit.

I didn't attach any GPU card, trying to run the integrated VGA from the motherboard. CPU has the fan connected and the 8-pin power as well (and the 24-pin to the motherboard)

The Core I3-9100f unfortunately does not have an iGPU.

Any Intel CPUs with an "f" at the end are CPUs without iGPUs.

Can I plug this one to the MB to get video? Tarjeta De Video Nvidia Evga Rtx 3060 12g-p5-3657-kr

Yes. Be sure your PSU is strong enough though. You should probably have 450W+.
