Hey everyone! I recently bought some awesome components for my dream PC, but I skipped on the RAM hoping prices would drop. Sadly, they haven't, and I can't find anything decent under 354 USD here in India. So, I've arranged for a friend to bring me a RAM kit from Taiwan in late January for 276 USD. In the meantime, I want to at least power on my PC to check everything else works. Since this is my first build since 2009, I'm feeling a bit lost. Can anyone suggest ways to bring my system to life without RAM? Additionally, I'd love recommendations for a GPU that can handle gaming at medium settings. Thanks in advance for your help!

Unfortunately, without RAM, your system won't function at all. You can build it and power it on, but it’ll just give you an error code for "no RAM installed." That's about the extent of using it before you get the RAM.
It’s like trying to drive a car without an engine; you’ve got the body, but it won’t go anywhere without the parts that matter.
