High CPU activity throughout, three prolonged beeps followed by two brief ones at startup, etc.
Hey! I've attached my setup details. For anything missing, I'm using an Antec Basiq Power Plus 550W PSU, my graphics card is an ASUS DUAL-RX580-O8G, and the 2TB HDD is connected externally. If this doesn't cover everything you need to know about my system, just let me know below.
When I play games, my CPU gets damaged no matter what the game is. It overheats and uses a lot of power even when idle. During startup, if I let the computer power cycle, it shuts down a few times without showing anything on the monitor while USB devices are connected. It prompts me to change my date and time, but I press F1 and keep going because I see a message often due to a non-functional power button.
After a power cycle, I hear three long beeps followed by two short ones occasionally—this suggests a memory initialization error. I don’t know how to fix it, and I also have other questions about BIOS settings, AMD Radeon Adrenalin, overclocking possibilities, and upgrade paths.
Thanks for your patience, even though I’m not very knowledgeable and seem unsure about what I’m dealing with.
Experienced a recent problem while playing Forza Horizon 5 — my computer stopped working and displayed a uniform color on the screen until I restarted. A friend suggested it might be a faulty GPU, possibly requiring a replacement. Any ideas about what could be causing the issue are appreciated.
