Help is this post cycle normal 5900x

also to mention i have fast boot in bios enabled and in windows disabled couse i had some vierd isue wher my pc didnt tunred of on shutdown
 
yeah i found information cpu light is red, dram is yellow, vga white and boot is yellow green, so that red light means it just checking cpu in power cycle
 
it boots every time, i was playing a lot in bios and never had it not boot. And when it boots none of lights stay up except one green light on the right that says cpu ready that light is always.It does not matter if pc is on or of
 
i tought couse cpu light iss red its some kind of error but its supposed to be red xd
no that's just the boot test, it will cycle all the LED's of it dosent boot and the LED stay on then there is a problem.

you need to reset bios to defaults that is always step one, make no changes NONE and test
when a system boot cycles 9 times out of 10 its RAM.

removed the ram from the secondary slots, reset bios and let it boot a few times (say 10) if the problem continues.. take the ram out of retest with the other set of ram and again reset bios and make NO changes if it continues..
unplug EVERY that's not needed for a successful boot, HDD's, fans, RGB poo and so on then retest

What motherboard do you have the model and revision, it could be possible to flashed the backup bios and not the main one so it trying to boot failing switching bios and booting.. this used to be common back in then Z97/x99 days


Edit:
Asus motherboard??? Code 42 Post Memory System Initialization

it trying to retrain ram, there is a problem of some sort, probably the CPU doesn't like the old ram buy new

Going 4 sticks for 16gig total is a waste. Grab yourself 2 x 16gb for 32gb total and less issue with memory controller.
Depends whether it's single rank or dual rank. 4 sticks can outperform 2 sticks on Ryzen in some cases.
I don't disagree that in general 2 sticks is better than 4 for stability but it's less simple with Ryzen due to the rank issue meaning depending on what RAM you have, running 2 sticks can compromise performance.

OP: Have a look in the BIOS for any settings relating to RAM testing/training, on some motherboards I've seen settings that lets you disable or tone down this activity.
