Greetings, Dell has a guide for this on their website - https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-hr/000126021/a-reference-guide-to-the-dell-optiplex-diagnostic-indicators
Per their guide "2 blinks followed by a short pause, 3 blinks, long pause, then repeats." is Bad Motherboard, Memory, or Processor.
