error 55 or A0 really need help

Hello everybody ;]

I'm new one here, but i will try to explain everything and sorry for me eng, hope you understand me 🙂
I build my first pc:

Mother: Asus hero ix formula
cpu: i7-7700k
cpu fan: kraken x62
ram: g skill trident rgb 16gb 16cl 3466
gpu: asus strix 1080

So, as i said before, i have post-code 55 problem (I know what it's a RAM problem), i checked it 100500 times, click memOk button - nothing help, so i tried to put 1 piece in a1 and b1 slots - error 55, if i put in a2 and b2 slots - error A0.
When i have error 55, nothing happens - monitor/mouse/keyboard dont work
When i have error A0, nothing happens, same thing. Monitor/mouse/keyboard dont work.
Really i dont know what to do, i google 100500 posts and i check my CPU, everything is okey, i checked few times my kraken, it stands very good, i even changed battery in my motherboard (i took off armor and etc), and still the same problem, i never been in BIOS.
All my parts new (it's their first boost) and i dont know what is not working and i dont have any place to check my parts...
So.. any ideas? I need to send back motherboard or RAM or CPU and change it to more cheapest or...? I'm rly confused, i spent a lot of money and still cant even turn it on :((((
I made 2 photos of my system and maybe check how i connect everything, maybe i made mistake and something dont work because of my fault 😞

okey, my new RAM arrived and still same problem, only once after connecting RAM in 1 slot with the 1st boost system was checked everything and stopped on error A2 and nothing worked so I reboot system after it's stopped and after next load was the same error A0...
I did few small videos with my loading with 2 slots of RAM and with 1... I really dont know what to do, but i think i need to send back this **** asus motherboard and buy cheapest one and not asus 😞
any ideas guys ?

1 - boot with 2 RAMs
2 - i forgot to make picture of "orange light" on DRAM (it's only with 2 RAMs)
3 - 3rd boot with 1 piece of RAM , no more "orange light" and A0 error

And of course nothing works :[

Try testing your system outside your case on top of the motherboard cardboard box with the bare minimum.

As NemesisChils said A0 is what you would expect when OS takes over from post/boot...and 55 can come from GPU problems...so both combined I'm wondering if you have a problem in display chain...GPU or display cable...?

i test with display port and hdmi port on my video card 1080 and built-in hmdi on motherboard, so i dont think it's a gpu problem

OK...so just watched videos...0A is of course not A0 which is going to confuse people

0A ram startup failure...

The CPU pictures look a bit weird...the areas around the corners don't look very normal to me but might be nothing to do with anything...back looks normal. Have you delided the CPU?

The pins in the socket look OK?

I can try to change CPU, i have time for change...
Sorry, i didn't find in the manual 0A, so i thought A0 same, but anyway you said it's a RAM startup failure... but my RAM is okey, i had g.skill trident rgb and i sent it back and bought new corsair dominator platinum and still the same errors, i think it's impossible that 2 RAMs from 2 different companies broken... Maybe RAM slots broken or just defective motherboard.. 😞
